This morning, LB recruit Kellen Wiley (Seffner) announced he is not visiting Miami this weekend.



I’m told this is NOT a drop situation. The staff really likes Kellen Wiley.

Miami has decided to move this weekend’s visitors (including Mykah Newton and Malachi Toney) to after signing day.

There are a couple reasons for this. First, these players have playoff games for their high school teams tomorrow. So it would have been a shortened, lower-quality visit.

Second, and most importantly, the team is in lockdown mode as it pushes towards its goal of an ACC Championship. There are usually a lot of recruits in the building on Sunday unofficials. That’s not happening this week. Everyone is completely locked in on getting ready for the home stretch.

Recruiting will continue, obviously, and remains paramount. But the decision was made to avoid visits during such a key time for the program.

The unfortunate part with Wiley is that, unlike Newton and Toney, he isn’t a commit. So the timing is off. But again, this decision applies to every recruit set to visit and is being made for the sole purpose of winning on Saturday, winning next week, and accomplishing the team’s goals for the season.

Whose bright idea was it to put signing day in the middle of conference championship week? Also it’s not a dead period after signing day?

Why is Mario acting like he coaches? He isn’t involved in Dawson or Guidry’s game planning. He’s got all the time in the world to be with the recruits.

So much for being the “cruiting gawd”

A coach who was hired to recruit, to actually recruit and not use “needing to focus on winning” as an excuse to push back visits. As I said Mario can’t draw up any play except inside zone. And he cant draw up a single defensive play. So what’s he focusing on? He spending all week writing his ra ra go team pregame speech?

Yea but there is an actual explanation that’s all that matters. Why can’t you just take his explanation as fact? Just have the recruits dad here watching, and you saying all this and make it look like our HC is cappin, great way to help out the effort.

If people say he’s a relentless recruiter let him recruit. What if he was thinking about this and changed his mind late? Maybe he’s like I should push this back cause Texas is coming hard and I have to go all out for this player cause I really want him.

When people say someone’s a trash recruiter (Manny) why can’t we trust that? We did, a lot of us. And we were right, just let the man cook. If he fails it’s not cause of this he just simple got beat out. He might have changed his mind, people change their minds or reevaluate their plans cause circumstances can change.


Yall taking shots at the HC while the recruits pops is here bruh. Like cmon

He has to land this kid, he has no excuse not to. I’ll be the first one to say that but trying to guess why he did what he did is retarded asf when we got the explanation already

nycane said:

Exactly. this board is filled with people who want Mario to fail to so they could say I told you so because they wanted to bring in whatever coach they wanted like Lane Kiffin who loses 3-4 games a year minimum and hates to recruit. You got a kid's dad on here and you try and crap on Mario, a guy who both Nick Saban and Butch Davis saw something in and think highly. I wasnt even a Mario guy but he is a **** of a recruiter.

I don’t get it bruh. Like his dad is literally in this thread. Any other time go ahead man criticize Mario, but imo it ain’t smart to do that in this thread. But freedom of speech man let them do them. We can’t stop it. I for one know he recruits his *** off and is a good program builder. I wouldn’t trade these past three recruiting cycles for the **** show effort of all the past coaches besides BD.

All those other coaches recruiting was like amateurs compared to where we at now on the trail. And it still isn’t good enough yet, but it can get there with the effort and some patience. These are our best classes ever since Butch

KW Jr. should take as long as he wants, he earned the recognition and the experience. Those of us who follow this know he's doing it in all the right ways, and we are super hopeful he's a Cane in the end.
