Win and they will come takes more than 8 wins. Wins don’t automatically mean better class. Most teams after winning championships see the recruiting bump the next year.

Miami sucked the first two years Mario was here. 8-0 doesn’t change what these kids have seen for their whole life.

Miami needs to win constantly, maybe win the conference for the 1st **** time might be a good start.
Correct and then there is the aspect that if Miami isn’t 8-0 right now in year 3 and 5-3 or 4-4, your class and roster starts to implode as the coach starts to be seen like a lame duck. Case in point with Napier.

Yea but Mario was pulling better classes with less wins
Not sure what is wrong with this years class
I have a feeliing opposing teams using fsu losing against us
I know nil is booming with the winning
Hopefully I’m wrong and we land at least picket
Who for almost two years we were told here if we win he will sign

Using FSU against us? You mean like saying we will collapse next year?

National signing day only 4 weeks away and despite Mario’s best season we on pace to sign his worst class since his first class
Win and they will come is always compium
Elite recruiters close no matter what
Like good traders make money no matter the market
"Elite recruiters close no matter what"

What makes you think we won't close?

Two years in a row he has closed pretty well.

Yup this is surprising but not surprising because it was never about wins on the field. Proven again time after time after time but people ignore it
 
Not even close to the same caliber of player. PJ(P) was a once a decade CB talent.
And what caliber player is DJ Pickett? 🤣🤣🤣

Both were 5 stars from the state of Florida that spurned Miami, went to L$U

not comparing that are the same type of playing style, I was comparing the recruitment process of both

Darrelle Revis and Richard Sherman were both 3 stars and had better Pro Careers than Patrick Peterson

The point is missing out on a 5 star player of DJ Pickett caliber is the same way we missed out on PJ

Killer misses

Look! Miami has improved and is now winning. If someone says “ Miami is winning but needs to win more “ the kid doesn’t wanna be here. Period. If the recruit continues to make excuses like this let him go. All I heard was wait till we win. Well we are! Same thing with some on this board. No matter what we do as a program there’s always something that makes them unhappy.

I was 100% confident that he’d be here if Miami won big.

Miami is 8-0 and no. 5 in the nation.

And this kid is cancelling visits to home games? That’s all you need to know.

Enjoy 8-4 at LSU, son!

Miami has done everything in their power to recruit this kid and has proven it on the field as well. Some people need to realize as much as we want everyone great we are gonna miss on kids. Every theory this board has come up with as to why we have missed has been checked off this year. Now the next excuse is we need to win consistently? Rather than taking off the orange and green glasses and realizing that other programs also have things to offer kids as well. Continue to recruit top ten classes and we will be fine.
 
Unless something truly incredible happens I don't see Top 5 this year. I think that's mainly from the subpar performance of the last two years, the first two cycles Mario and Co. could sell the vision, but the current class saw 2 years with below average performance. IMO if we close out the year with a ACC championship and a playoff run, the 2026 class is going to be INSANE.

Somewhere between 5-9 is what I'm thinking but likely 7-9.
