So I was subbing at this school and got the chance to talk to Johnny Walker. Very good DE/ LB who committed to Washington State. Talked to him about Miami and he said he came on an unofficial, got a scholarship offer from them ( didn't ask if it was committable or not) and he said he did but he didn't feel the vibe to commit. Said our lbs are nice dudes but were underperforming. SMDH... this scholl has BOTH Walker and Ash ( committed to different schools and lesser programs) and they both shunned Miami. Why? not only the product on the field but Miami wants this kid at WDE ( Walker) and he wants to play LB at the next level. Guess who said yeah you can play Linebacker here? Washington State. I hate our recruiting strategy man.

Can take or leave Walker from what I remember...And yeah not sure he fits for with what UM's doing with LB right now. JMO
 
Never ceases to amaze me that these kids don't see the other side of the coin. Come to a program that has needs in your position and have the opportunity to play right away - if they put in the work.

Yes, but when you see your predecessors putting in the work and not seeing results your question the coaching.

Not unlike job interviewing and getting the sense the company has a toxic work environment. The job opening sounds like a good opportunity but the hiring manager(s) give off a bad vibe.

About 150 d1 scholarships form the tri-county area each year. Everyone misses out down here. Can’t recruit or evaluate them all. Plenty of sofla 4 stars have left here only to be never heard from again but fans coaches and recruits only give a sht when they don’t pan out here.
Miami is literally the most difficult place to recruit at.
People think it’s a gimme to just come here and land kids. But nothing could be further from the truth and posts like this prove it. Not only must we land them but also insure they will be 1st round picks. Bama lands Jeudy and wins a natty and for some reason we can’t talk sht about the amount of Bama kids that never even made an nfl practice squad. Instead, the narrative is “if Jeudy came here he would’ve been a 5 round pick”.
The reality is that for the average recruiting ranking weve had, we've put out an above average amount of kids in the league.
The problem in Miami has not only been coaching But it’s also been depth. So while a 4 star 2nd string player at bama might not make the league he’s better than any backup on our team. But if that 4 star player came here and started and doesn’t make the league either it’s our fault cause we don’t “develop talent”.

They didn't shun Miami. UM pursued both briefly and decided to move onto other targets

yup... I was 305 but relocated here... I feel that if the staff really pushed for this kid and Ash they could have them. Chamberlain produces good players.
I know it . I’m grew up off Busch going east of 275. When I was a kid I always wanted to go to Chambo because I liked the bleachers and the stadium

Johnny walker can’t play LB at all.

He’ll be in the portal or he’ll move to DE.

Man come on now, the young man committed to play on the other side of the country at Washington state. He didn't spurn anyone he, took the Team that would accept his commitment. Not BC, not UCF, not USF, not even Nebraska, but flipping Wazzu he can play with WVU transfer from down here Lamonte Mcdougle.

Go Canes
