Removed Vernon Hargreaves III (committed to UF)
Removed Rashard Robinson (committed to LSU)
Removed Sojourn Shelton (Not a realistic option)

Percentage Key
0-10 Extremely Low Chance
15-25 Low Chance
30-40 Decent Chance
45-60 Good Chance
65-75 Great Chance
80-95 Virtual Lock
100 Lock
In parentheses is the expected number that Miami will take at that position.
QB (1)
Things are the same here. Olsen will be the only QB.
Kevin Olsen (commit): It was unfortunate that Olsen couldn't make it down to Senior Day because New Jersey state rules.
7/25: 100%
8/13: 100%
RB (1)
As it is right now, it's looking more and more like Collins will be the only back in the class. Danny Dillard's qualification helps a lot for depth.
Alex Collins (commit): There was talk for weeks about Collins flirting with FSU, but having him show up for Senior Day was huge. Noles coaches love him, but don't want to overload at RB. Canes look strong here.
7/25: 65%
8/13: 75%
AJ Turman: Turman never made it down to Miami like he was expected to over the summer. With Collins' commitment solidifying, the staff isn't pushing hard.
7/25: 30%
8/13: 10%
WR (1-2)
No major changes here. The Coley-Cunningham situation will be interesting as it develops.
Angelo Jean-Louis (commit): The 2012 signee will be here in January; he’s at Fork Union Military Academy for the season. His commitment has always been strong and the coaches love him. **No change from previous update**
7/25: 100%
8/13: 100%
Stacy Coley: Coley was in the news recently when his coach said that Miami was in his top 3 along with South Florida and FSU. There is still a lot of questions surrounding him, but the situation is looking a bit more positive than before. He has been in contact with the staff.
7/25: 15%
8/13: 35%
Jordan Cunningham: Visited Miami yesterday for Rising Senior Day. Canes are in the same spot with him. He will wind up here if the offer is committable. A lot is contingent on what happens with Coley.
7/25: 60%
8/13: 65%
TE (3)
Miami is more than happy with their current crop of tight end commits and all three are extremely solid. No worries with their level of commitment. No changes on any of their level of commitments from the previous update.
Travis Johnson (commit): Visited yesterday (100%)
Standish Dobard (commit): (100%)
Jeremy Kerr (commit): Visited yesterday (100%)
OL (2-3)
Ideally, 3 is the number at OL.
Alex Gall (commit): (100%)
Denver Kirkland: Was at senior day yesterday, things are still positive with him, but FSU remains the biggest competition.
7/25: 55%
8/13: 60%
Hunter Knighton: The New Jersey product was offered at a camp after Coach Kehoe was impressed by him. He was not able to make it down yesterday like he had originally planned, but is still planning to take an official visit. He has serious interest.
7/25: NA
8/13: 40%
Roderick Johnson: The recent UF de-commitment has serious interest in Miami, but the Canes have not offered yet. He will be somebody to keep an eye on throughout the high school season. Noles lead at the moment. An offer would significantly increase Miami's chances.
7/25: NA
8/13: 15%
Sandley Jean-Felix: The Boyd Anderson tackle is another under-the-radar kid. He has worlds of potential, but is extremely raw. Sat out last season due to grades issues so that could be a problem, but from a talent standpoint, has a chance to be special. Would have had a much better chance at an offer in last year’s class, where offers weren’t limited. **No change from previous update**
7/25: 5%
8/13: 5%
DT (2-3)
The "3 B's" look like a major possibility.
Keith Bryant (commit): Made the trip down yesterday and enjoyed himself. There has been talk that his mother wants him to get away from home, but that shouldn't be an issue in the long run. He wants to be at Miami.
7/25: 100%
8/13: 100%
Maquedius Bain: One of the handful of uncommitted prospects who visited yesterday. It is only a matter of when, not if, he will be a Cane.
7/25: 80%
8/13: 85%
Jaynard Bostwick: The cousin of current Cane linebacker, Thurston Armbrister, has Miami in the lead. Versatile prospect who can play end or tackle. Wasn't able to make the trip down yesterday, but that isn't an issue.
7/25: 60%
8/13: 65%
Deadrin Senat: The former FSU commit likes Miami a lot, but has not been offered. He could be a realistic option if they can’t land Bostwick or Bain. **No change from previous update**
7/25: 10%
8/13: 10%
DE (1)
It's kind of surprising that the staff hasn't made this more of a priority, but it looks like Williams or bust.
Tim Williams: Named Miami his leader recently. Was planning to come down for Senior Day, but wasn't able to afford the last minute trip. He is setting up an official visit for the FSU game. Noles are the biggest contenders right now with LSU still lurking if they make a push for him.
7/25: 45%
8/13: 55%
LB (2)
Thomas is leaning towards the Noles heavily, some new names may emerge.
Matthew Thomas: Went up to Tallahassee this weekend instead of coming for Senior Day. Bad sign for Miami, but not the end of the world. Canes are still in the running, but major ground will need to be made up.
7/25: 45%
8/13: 40%
Jermaine Grace: Will be a Hurricane in all likelihood, but will make us wait until Signing Day to announce.
7/25: 85%
8/13: 90%
Quinten James: The Georgia prospect reports an offer, but I'm not sure if it is committable. He loves Miami, though.
7/25: NA
8/13: 25%
Mike Parker: Visited yesterday with his brother, came down from Virginia. Nice looking tweener prospect who has the frame to add weight. Reminds me of Travis Williams. West Virginia remains the biggest threat.
7/25: 35%
8/13: 45%
CB (1)
Options are slim here. Major targets don't have extremely high interest. Artie Burns remains a possibility to play corner if the depth at safety is fine.
Mackensie Alexander: Elite player, who was committed to Tennessee early on. Wants to play with his brother, Mackenro, but Miami is not and most likely will not pursue him. Anything can happen, but it doesn’t look good for the Canes. **No change from previous update**
7/25: 15%
8/13: 15%
Will Likely: One of my favorite players in the class, Likely doesn’t have the measurable and that is why Miami will most likely pass him up. The Canes aren’t the only big school that has not offered, though. **No change from previous update**
7/25: 10%
8/13: 10%
S (2)
It looks like 2 could be the number. Ray Lewis III thinks he will wind up playing safety, so that would slide Burns to corner, which would fill that need.
Artie Burns (commit): Was on campus yesterday.
7/25: 100%
8/13: 100%
Jamal Carter (commit): Committed to Miami between the previous update and now. He is solid and was on campus yesterday.
7/25: 95%
8/13: 100%
Leroy Clark: Another kid who could possibly receive a late offer if something falls through with one of the other prospects at safety. He is a ball hawk. **No change from previous update**
7/25: 5%
8/13: 5%

Ray Lewis III (commit): Had a great time yesterday on campus. He thinks he will wind up at DB, preferably Safety.
