Yesterday, we took a look at the Miami targets on offense that measured in at the Rivals 3 Stripe Miami Camp and blessed us with updated height-weight measurables. Today, we’ll take a peek at the defense.
To be clear, this is a list of targets that have gotten at least some level of interest from the Miami coaches; not all of them currently have offers.
A big Canes target that was in attendance, Anthony Solomon, did not measure in at the event.
DE
Cameron Williams, Chaminade-Madonna (2019) – 6’4” 224.5
Demetris Dorceus, Fort Lauderdale High (2019) – 6’1” 237.5
Khris Bogle, Cardinal Gibbons (2019) – 6’3” 200.5
Mike Morris, American Heritage B/D (2019) – 6’5” 257.5
Samuel Anaele, Norland (2020) – 6’3” 245.5
Thoughts: It’s not a coincidence how the four main defensive linemen that were in the running for DL MVP have all at least been contacted by Miami. We all already know how great Williams and Anaele are and both have good size. While Bogle was knifing through into the backfield all afternoon, he really needs to put on some pounds; he looks smaller than he was during the season. Morris had the most notable build, but sat out on the day. Dorceus is the only one from this group without an offer from the Canes and, at 6’1”, you just wish he could grow an extra inch or two. His brute strength is unreal and, even if the Canes don’t get more involved, he’ll be playing Power 5 somewhere.
DT
Jeramy Passmore, Columbus (2019) – 6’0” 245
Denzel Daxon, Norland (2019) – 6’1” 318
Elijah Roberts, Columbus (2020) – 6’2” 245.5
Willie Moise, Chaminade-Madonna (2020) – 6’5” 280.5
Thoughts: The DT’s were more or less a non-factor at the camp, especially when compared with the performance of the DE’s. It’s good to see Daxon is a legit 300+, while Moise’s build really impressed me for a rising junior. The Columbus duo of Passmore and Roberts are waiting on a Miami offer and look to be undersized at this time.
LB
Jahmar Brown, St. Thomas (2019) – 6’0” 192
Keontra Smith, Chaminade-Madonna (2019) 5’11” 199
Darius Williams, Norland (2019) – 6’0” 225
Ge’mon Eaford, Deerfield Beach (2019) – 6’0” 216
Thoughts: Like the DT’s, the LB’s didn’t make much noise at the camp. Smith took reps at both LB and S and is hearing from UM right now; it’ll be interesting to see where he ends up playing in college at 5’11”. Williams has packed on some serious weight since the end of his junior season, at least 10-15 pounds. Note Anthony Solomon won MVP here, but did not measure-in. He looked a little skinny, but has a nice frame to gain weight.
CB
Te'Cory Couch, Chaminade-Madonna (2019) - 5’10” 149
Jaden Davis, St. Thomas (2019) - 5’9” 166.5
Josh Sanguinetti, University School (2019) – 5’11” 168
Kaiir Elam, The Benjamin School (2019) – 6’1” 186
Demetries Ford, Columbus (2019) - 5’8” 168
Marcus Lafrance, St. Thomas (2019) - 6’1” 166
Deante Nelson, Pahokee (2019) – 5’10” 166
Jadarius McKnight, Dunbar (2020) – 5’10” 189
Corey Collier, Miami Palmetto (2021) – 6’0” 161
Jason Marshall, Miami Palmetto (2021) – 6’0” 167.5
Thoughts: There was probably more corners than any other position in attendance. Elam was easily the most physically impressive, while Green-McKnight was a close second. Couch looked small and really needs to gain weight at under 150 pounds. Ford, Lafrance, and Nelson are all in contact with the coaches as the Canes seem to be waiting on other targets first before sending out an offer.
S
Tyler Scott, University School (2019) – 5’9” 178
Jordan Battle, St. Thomas (2019) – 6’1” 186
Thoughts: Not many prospects listed themselves as a safety. Scott was thoroughly outplayed by Battle; both do not currently have offers. Battle could also challenge Elam for best frame out of all the DB’s.
ATH
Tyrique Stevenson, South Dade (2019) 6’0” 186.5
Mark-Antony Richards (2019) 6’0” 185
Derek Wingo, St. Thomas (2020) – 6’1” 207.5
Xavier Restrepo, St. Thomas (2020) – 5’9” 182.5
Thoughts: All four of these guys have really good builds, which helps their versatility. Restrepo played mainly WR, Wingo mainly LB, Richards mainly RB, and Stevenson mainly CB. Richards won RB MVP, while Restrepo and Stevenson both had great camps; all three sport Cane offers. Wingo was quieter and is still hoping for a UM offer.
