That is why I was trying to get some old heads in here.

Back in the 80's there were some big coups, but I don't know the order of which commitments went down and on what dates...plus, different back then with coverage was in magazine/newsletter format.
 
The 2004 class closed with Rhyan Anderson, JAmes Bryant, Andrew Johnson, and Willie Williams on signing day. All of them were top 100 players...best close I can remember since I started following recruiting.

With Signing Day two weeks away...Miami's class isn't finished, or even close, but the targets left on the board could make this the strongest Close leading up to Signing Day Miami has seen in a LONG time.

***** LB Matthew Thomas
**** LB Jermaine Grace
**** DT Keith Bryant
**** DT Jaynard Bostwick
**** CB Rashard Robinson
**** RB Alex Collins
**** WR Stacy Coley
**** OG Denver Kirkland

Not only is that a lot of stars...there is nobody on that list north of Port Saint Lucie.

I say God ****...I'm feeling good about Signing Day right now.

Any old timers recall a CLOSE to Signing Day that could yield so many star prospects whose commitments are still in the balance?

That's a group of kids that can take us back to the next level. It's going to be a stressful 2 weeks.

Is it too out there to think, knowing how Golden controls all, that at least some of the list above is being asked to publicly wait to announce so that it can really be a big deal? Just thinking out loud post the orchestrated "we are staying" press conf.

I can see that being the case. Think of how much more attention that brings to Miami on a national level. All those big recruits mainly staying home would be a big story

1st rule of recruiting. Get them in quick and dont let them out of your sight.

If this was the case he would of asked Olsen to do the same.
