“First of all, we just toured the whole campus. It was beautiful. That was probably my favorite part of the trip,” Hipp told InsideTheU following his visit on Tuesday afternoon. “Just getting to see all the campus and all the scenery, it’s unlike anything I’ve ever seen. That was my favorite part. We obviously got to see the whole facility and campus and I got to talk ball with [Mario Cristobal]. It’s been really nice for sure.”
Miami is a place Hipp knew he had to see this spring.
“Miami is one of my top schools for sure and it was really important for me to come down here. Everything lined up and it was a great opportunity for me and my mom to check out the place and I’ve been really blown away by everything I’ve seen,” Hipp said.
There is something different about Miami when compared to some of the other programs the 6-foot-6, 230-pounder got to see over the past week.

Hipp is close friends with another Miami target and that’s quarterback Luke Moga, who was on campus at the end of January.
“We were actually talking the other day about the chance of us actually playing together in college. We both love Miami. It’s been crazy just thinking of the possibility of that - just being friends in high school and being teammates in college would be nuts,” Hipp said.
