Speak of the devil, TOS just posted a story that Downs may take a visit to Miami sometime during the season.
THE LIKES FROM HIS OV'S:
Georgia: “The development from the coaches, my familiarity with the staff, I have been there numerous times, being home and making a legacy for myself at home.”
Alabama: “The winning tradition coach Saban has built, how their players produce in the league, and their discipline with how they do things.”
Ohio State: “The family atmosphere, how everyone is trying to succeed, and the want to win. And how the coaches care about the players more than just on the field.”
Notre Dame: “The approach they have, the approach of having more than just how they can help you on the field. Their approach is what the school can do for you, after football, and how much money their grads make compared to other schools; the lifestyle of Notre Dame grads.”
The unused official visit is a security visit just in case.
“If I feel I need to take it during the season, then I will take it if I don’t feel confident in my decision, but I doubt that will happen,” Downs said.
While an official may not be in the works, a couple unofficial trips could take place.
“We’ve been thinking about taking visits,” Downs shared. “Maybe to
Miamiand
Texas.”
No commitment date has been set, but Downs wants to make his announcement before the 2022 season begins. When that decision is made, he is using a three-factor process.
“Development on the field, comfortable with the people I am around, and where I feel I can succeed,” Downs said.
