Elite Prospect Weekend is here!

I think Saban is on the clock. Kirby got the title with an average at best QB. TAMU, Ohio State, and Clemson in the mix. ND will also be there because their brand has always given them the ability to recruit nationally.

Miami and USC have the biggest upside and ceiling because the largest amount of talent is closet to their schools. I predict the power structure of college football will change dramatically in 3-5 years. By then, Miami and USC will be in the CFP annually especially with CFP expansion. Both schools could make it sooner. Miami has a chance in 2022. The bottom line is beating Clemson. Might have to do it twice. A tremendous challenge, but not impossible.

Assuming MC makes the right calls on OC/DC, I think the Canes have a good shot at knocking off Clemson this year. If CU doesn't get their QB room right, they should be very nervous about us.

If they went full court press that would of been a missed eval from bama, I know they did everything in their power to get Juedy. Juedys recruitment seemed different then Popes but it was difficult to remember Popes recruitment.

It's all a numbers game with Alabama recruiting. Sign 3 elite wide receivers every year and one of them should pop.

Stop being so sensitive, no one saying there isn’t 5* busts from Florida. Question was asked about his comp, not need to get so defensive.

How is me responding and answering being sensitive? I also asked for clarification around national competition. You sound sensitive trying to regulate someone else.

Most had Saturday circled as the day Miami planned to host major prospects across the Class of 2023 and 2024.

While the Hurricanes plan on doing a lot more on Saturday, the action got going Friday with multiple blue-chip prospects making their way to Coral Gables.

- Detroit (Mich.) King five-star quarterback Dante Moore was probably the most high-profile guy in Coral Gables. The signal-caller, who is one of two players Cristobal has offered at the position, has a great relationship with the Hurricanes head coach and was able to learn a lot about the program while on campus. He didn’t talk a lot about the offense, but Moore hinted that Cristobal has a plan for the unit.

- Tacoma (Wash.) Lincoln five-star defensive lineman Jayden Wayne is another elite recruit who came through Coral Gables on Friday. Wayne took a tour of the school Joe Salave’a and recruiting staffer Terry Jefferson before being greeted by Mario Cristobal, who was the first coach to offer Wayne.

Wayne’s parents were happy to see Cristobal and they all spoke for a few minutes before heading inside and starting the visit. Cristobal was noticeably happy to see Wayne.

I asked Wayne why getting down to Miami was a priority this weekend and the clear answer was his relationship with Cristobal and Salave’a. He enjoyed getting another look at Miami and credited the brotherhood around the program. He’s excited about seeing that again in the morning when he’s around other big-time recruits.

- The first person in this morning was Orlando Edgewater tight end Camp Magee, who picked up a UM offer by the time he left campus. The 6-foot-6, 210-pounder looked every bit of that listing. Miami will be a player in that recruitment as is Iowa State, who is scheduled to get a visit next weekend.

- Miami also hosted a pair of Top247 cornerbacks in the Class of 2023 in Corona (Cali.) Centennial’s Aaron Williams and St. Louis (Mo.) DeSmet’s Christian Gray.

Williams left Miami feeling really good about the Hurricanes and Mario Cristobal, who he said was the first to offer as an eighth grader. The plan is for Williams to come back in the morning on the day of the scheduled Elite Prospect Day before playing in the Battle Miami tournament over the course of the weekend.

- 2023 Ferndale (Wash.) offensive lineman Landon Hatchett is another guy who made it to Miami on Friday. He was being escorted by graduate assistant Reggie Bain for most of the afternoon. He’s a potential center-type of prospect who seemed to be enjoying himself.

- Miami also hosted local guys like Miami Gulliver Prep five-star wide receiver Jalen Brown, who got to meet Bryan McClendon for the first time, Miami Killian Top247 athlete Robby Washington, Miami Killian four-star linebacker Stanquan Clark, and Miami Killian linebacker Bobby Washington.

- A top Class of 2024 prospect that came through Coral Gables was Chesepeake (Va.) Oscar Smith Top100 cornerback Asaad Brown.
- Fort Lauderdale St. Thomas Aquinas quarterback Tyler Aronson also made it by campus, as did Homestead running back Isaac Brown, who I heard have a conversation with Kevin Smith. Smith is going to be a big-time recruiter down here.

Watching Smith in that element was really unique. You can tell he's a builder of men and a guy who does things the right way. Brown is young and shy and Smith was talking to him about eye contact and about how he's going to make him feel at home and that the next time they saw each other he would feel more open about him. Smith also explained to Brown about how they were from the same place in Goulds.

Kevin Smith at Miami is going to be a problem for the SEC.

I think Mario year three u will see something great. I'm being patient and our roster although has spots is a mess. Most fans don't see it that way I'll agree to disagree there. Let's see how we close.

Lol. Bro you been coming in hot when it comes to this kid. This is a moot point since you said yourself he’s not getting past LSU geography wise. So all of us drooling over his highlights is wasting time. NEXT...

Coming in hot is asking questions? You mentioned Lance Leggett to try and correlate Texas talent/competition. Not remembering Legget is from Florida. It’s all good. I just wanted a understanding of “national level” teams. There’s only a handful of those per state. There’s talent everywhere regardless of competition.
