View as article
Of all the Palemtto kids if we put together a great season I think we have a shot with Taylor. Not so much with the rest of them.

I hate to say it but if UiF’s paying $ and winning, what have we been able to offer?

By being the best team in The state. 2 str8 10 win seasons will do a lot for any of the big 3. Add that to us and FSU being trash it's the perfect storm. If they make it to the SEC championship like I've seen some early predictions say UF will be King of the state for the foreseeable future. Of course our Canes and/or FSU can change this buy winning also.

Nah the Hova affect.

Brewster just got there.

Coach Hova was at UF, then went to FSU briefly, but got rehired at UF & he's plugged in heavy in South Dade because he used to coach Basketball & 7v7 down there & knows all those South Dade, Perrine, Goulds, Richmond Heights & Homestead kids.

And particularly at Palmetto they have coaches & admin that are heavy Gaytor fans.

This hasn’t been a secret for a long time , Taylor to UF has been trending too. I haven’t viewed either as UM commits for awhile. Just for my sanity.

Maybe we win 10-11 games and change things but as of now I wouldn’t hold my breath.

From Collins and Taylor speaking to Manny Navarro yesterday:
Sounds like the coaches don't care that much about Collins...

• Collins (6-4, 290) could be the first to part ways with Miami. He said he visited Florida on Saturday with a few of his high school teammates and continues to be impressed by the Gators.

He said a big reason he has remained committed to Miami – amid the team’s combined 13-13 record over the last two seasons – is because his mother wants him to stay close to home. But Collins said he took his mother with him up to Gainesville this past weekend, and she’s now “thinking about some stuff.”

He also said he hasn’t spoken to Miami’s coaches “since before February.” He said the relationship has been sort of rocky of late.

“Originally me and (Leonard Taylor) were recruited by Coach Simpson and then he left. Then coach Richt retired,” Collins said. “The coaches at Miami keep saying there’s going to be good changes, but I don’t see the results.”

Taylor, one of Miami’s top recruiting targets, does not have Miami in his top five. Florida, Georgia, LSU, Tennessee and Auburn are there and it appears the Gators are the front-runner.

“I like the whole coaching staff,” said Taylor, one of five five-star recruits in South Florida this year. “Every time I walk on campus, I feel like I’m home.”

Why not Miami? “Once they lost to Florida International, for me it was like: ‘How do you lose to FIU?’” Taylor said.

Taylor, who attended Miami’s Junior Day last month, said Miami’s coaches continue to recruit him hard. He said Miami defensive line coach Todd Stroud will, “Facetime me here and there.” Other members of Miami’s recruiting department message him as well. But it’s not working.

“They don’t leave me alone. I get text messages every day,” he said. “It’s annoying. But that’s their job, I guess.”

Taylor and Collins both said the only way Miami could land them in the end is by winning big on the field.

“If they prove it, I’m staying,” Collins said. “But I need proof. I just can’t keep going with the hype.”
