- “Ever since (mid-June) they’ve been giving me good energy,” Latimer said of Miami’s staff. “They’ve been talking to me almost every day and I’m hearing from multiple coaches, so that’s always good that I know that they’re interested. I was also a fan of Miami growing up, so that was a school that I always looked at, especially on Saturdays.”

- Latimer has largely communicated with running backs coach Matt Merritt and offensive analyst Benedick Hyppolite. He said both “seem like good people over the phone” and “are really genuine.” He last visited Miami for the Hurricanes’ Legends Camp last year.

- “They tell me every time they get a chance to talk to me how much they want me to get down there and just be a part of the program,” Latimer said. “From what I know, it’s a real nice school. It seems like the players get along well, and they also have the major I want to major in, so that’s good.”

So it turns out he's a teammate of Evan Harvey and they both hoop on the 3x state champs.

Grand nephew of the GREAT Don Latimer.

FYI, Amari's older brother transferred to Wisconsin around the time that Lucas left for Miami.
