He wants to play in the SEC. It's been known for months. If it's not Bama, it'll be Tennessee. Bottom line, he's not signing with Miami. Let this thread die.
you say that for now, it's always been the case. the main catalyst of college football not being "scared" of us mainly part to recruiting. the elite teams are literally sleeping in South Florida taking our kids last decade plus. back in the day we made our presence known that you are battling us to the last second for them and we overlook the kids that wanna be apart of it (i.e. Bridgewater, devote freeman)..now we just lay down likeThis sums up what is wrong with our fans. While that sounds great and all, the reality is nobody in the nation has been afraid of Miami for a single day for as long as kids like bogle have been old enough to watch football.
Of course it has not always been the case. Because in the eras you are referencing, we were dominating on the field. The whole concept of selling The U as a brand and as an aura to be feared has been dead for over a decade now. HS aged kids have zero connotation with Miami and winning whatsoever. Their dads and uncles tell them how great we once were, and then they watch with their own eyes as we get beat by teams the likes of duke, bc, uva, pitt, etc, and then get absolutely annihilated when we face bigtime teams like clemson. Until we show them what a winning Miami team looms like, those tales from old family members aren't going to mean a **** thing in recruiting races vs the current powers.you say that for now, it's always been the case. the main catalyst of college football not being "scared" of us mainly part to recruiting. the elite teams are literally sleeping in South Florida taking our kids last decade plus. back in the day we made our presence known that you are battling us to the last second for them and we overlook the kids that wanna be apart of it (i.e. Bridgewater, devote freeman)..now we just lay down like

Agree 100% with your points. I'd much rather have kids that want to be Canes than 5-star divas that don't.the brand has always been strong.. do we need to win to get the guys we really want? yes. the problem as i refrenced is that the kids that want to come to the U and really represent we passover, dont recruit like it's nothing.. you honestly think hypothetically if the kids that wanna go there if we recruit them and commit to us really was gon let pitt uva beat them if we had a whole roster of true canes? let's be serious bro.15 years plus but somehow we were still nabbing top 5 to 25 classes in those spans. that's excuses..once we evaluate do our do diligence and gets our GUYS, it comes down to coaching and development and well be fine

For a guy that cant stay off social media I find it odd that he didnt mention Bama commit or have Bama on his account. Only committed to the Poly bowl. Probably reading too much into it.
Saw an article where he claimed he was going to commit to Tennessee. Hope we are moving on at this point.Very odd. There is NOTHING about his committment on his twitter timeline.
I noticed that too when I unfollowed him the other day. I still find it hard to believe that we were the bronze medal here? Rocky's Top???https://mobile.twitter.com/khris_a1?lang=en

Kid was better off waiting till signing day. If I was Saban I would say either you are 100% committed to us as in no visits and no contact with other schools or we are dropping your ***.
Wouldn’t surprise me if he ends up at Miami in the end. He’s handled his recruiting pretty poorly.
