Edwards and Henderson

Someone mention Butch Davis da gawww?

Yawn. Butch was recruiting Miami kids when our brand had never been higher. (4 titles in 10 years).

Richt is having to recruit Miami kids while our brand is worse than it's ever been in the modern era (15 year drought).


You're clearly a pup or a Gator fan. Completely FOS.

How was our brand not on top of CFB by the mid 90s? It was us and FSU.

Yes we went on probation, but as far as kids were concerned we were the bad boys of CFB and they all wanted to play for us (so much so that some agreed to come to Miami on a fvckin track scholarship just so they could play football at The U).


Almost got the death penalty. Didn't have enough players for practice scrimmage.

Again - who are you and what are you doing on a Canes board?

Obviously the fvckin scholarships lost made the rebuild incredibly difficult. I'm just talking about our image at the time.

Nothing I said was meant to discredit the job Butch did. But those who act like he would walk into Miami today and kill it on the recruiting trails are delusional. It's not cool to play at miami right now. The SEC is what's trendy.

“He told me he’s going to be communicating that to Miami, that he was going to tell them either last night or today that he wasn’t coming there.”

....

“He’s going to sleep on it again and go from there,” Rose said.

From Canesport.com

Those two quotes don't seem to jive.

I agree . Couple that with Henderson canceling his visit last night and things don't look so good right now. Can't believe that Edwards was swayed so easily. SMH

95-99. 8-3, 9-3, 5-6, 9-3, 9-4... That's not exactly what I'd call at the top of CFB.

The brand, not our record/ranking in those few down years (which ironically enough were still better than our BEST records in this decade).

Every So Fla athlete wanted to play at Miami in the 90s. All of em.

The death penalty kept us from bringing a full slate in, but that doesn't change the image of the program in the eyes of 15-19 yr olds in HS who still see the swag, etc.

How do you think Butch got kids to come to Miami on track scholarships to play football? Or snag Reed, Reggie, etc and bring em down to UM. Go ask those guys what they loved about UM, and why they came to Miami. They didn't know **** about how many schollies we lost, etc. They saw a bad *** renegade program and they wanted to be apart of it.

CFB landscape has changed, and not in our favor. SEC is the flavor of the decade and we can't even win the coastal.

We will land them both on Wednesday! Just a hunch, zero inside information. These kids are confused right now and I guess I understand. They are being pulled in all sorts of direction. I think the parents will eventually get involved and say, Just stay close to home!
 
Edwards is UF's

Split between him and Henderson looking likely here

#watchthefinish

I hope this is a lesson not only to our coaches but to our writers and our fan base in general. We are going to close well, but not to the point where we should be talking all the **** we were. We were out here trolling people all over the interwebs. Maybe next time let's just chill the **** out until Richt and staff announce the class before we crow. I'm all for great information and I hope that will continue, but too many on here were too busy starting hashtags and trying to act like we did something before it was over. We just lost 2 of the prospects we were supposed to close with and didn't even get a visit from the best WR we were recruiting all year. The guys left are still good, but we just **** the bed after drawing a lot of eyes to us.

Getting potentially
Jeff Thomas 4star
Chris Henderson 4star
Jhavontae dean 4star
Kai Leon Herbert 4star
Mike Harley 4star

Is considering sh*tting the bed? Wtf you smoking?

Stop Brock, just stop. Stop the White Knight fan act.

Have you noticed your list is getting shorter and shorter? Stop saying Thomas, b/c Thomas hasn't signed here. Stop saying Henderson b/c ole buddy is probably more UF than Edwards. Hasn't McFarland taught any of you shade wearers anything? Let's HOPE we close w your list, but being that we need depth at the RB and DB positions, this close would be cool, but not ground breaking and no front, as a 1st year coaching bump, disappointing.

I've been noticing the same thing. Wait until Wednesday is all I'm saying. I'm not bashing Pete as he's relaying info to us. But some posters on here hold Pete accountable for how things take a quick right turn. Pete's merely a source of recruiting information, and a **** good one. He has no influence on these kids and he doesn't have a crystal ball on where these kids end up.

But as was mentioned, there are no sure fire 100% locks in this class. There's the ones where they most likely end up here in Dean and Harley. But even then neither is 100% IMO. But for anyone to say that CJ and Edwards were locks as Canes were sipping on the Canes lemonade. I've always been skeptical since they both decommitted respectfully and I'll stay consistent with that until that LOI comes in.

But brock needs to lay off with the enforcer act given that some of us aren't new to the crooting game.

Thomas is like Harley. He has really limited his own options. It is even more extreme in his case. He didn't visit any other schools. Didn't meet any other coaches. Hasn't been on any of the campuses in his top 3 in any capacity besides Miami.

IF we close with them that would be miamis best close since 2008. And I said potentially not that It would happen that exact way

a kid that his inner circle and family told him pick miami and dont trust uf coaches (who never sent the position coach or head coach to in home). Tells miami on sunday hes coming and going to uf just for fun to visit comes back from official and picks uf even after his inner circle and family is telling him not to cause uf coaches are lying. Like as a staffer what do you do ? recruiting blows

Dean and bandy are still our most important dub recruits. That's why I think even without Henderson or Edwards this is still a good dab class. I honestly think Carter, Dean and Bandy (nickel) will all be starters this season. I think getting Henderson and Edwards would probably be the best dub class we could have hoped for and I definitely want them bad. But I'm still very happy with dean and bandy, and don't think that's much to about. And most importantly this doesn't seem like a case of coaches inability to recruit, its the kids just being retarded

Unbelievable. Kid barely got recruited from them. How can someone be so in love with a school who has him as a 5th option?

As grandpa Ubaldo told a 5 year old The Franchise, "Treat a ho like a queen and a queen like a ho." Oldest pimp game in the world. Edwards must have super low self-esteem.

What has Rumph done to prove he's worth a **** on the recruiting trails?

I agree; and you did say potentially, so my fault. Realistically, I think we land Thomas, Harley, and Dean. I'm not expecting any surprises. Something about McFarland took the wind out of the sails and then we had a crack head fan who decided to create a fake story on UF...all not good looks.
