We always talked about our teams looking bigger, well while S&C and nutrition are very important it starts with who you recruit. Mauigoa, Thor and Riley all look bigger than our players going into their senior year.

Riley is a big dude at TE for the high school level.

What? Didn't you hear DAVID LAKE... (who the **** is David lake again by the way) dude don't know **** about football but he's throwing out all kinds of hot takes today. Stick with his trash *** sight and those morons over there. Any educated fan tells him shut it. You gonna make an assessment on a kid who needs real coaching to settle anywhere like Mario and Mirabal don't got this.

David Lake is as mid as the rest of them. But he's a Cane, he went to Miami so I try to pick on others instead lol.

One of things I was reading about the academics ar IMG is that they prepare the kids to enroll early into college. That's their standard. So, I don't have any a anemic concerns about a kid graduating from IMG.

I'm not a fan of IMG. They're good for the individual, but not the sport of high school football in my opinion.

You have to remember, IMG is a business. They're developing athletes so they can represent them when they enter professional sports. Not just with playing contracts, but endorsements as well.

They're a player in the game, so it's best to have a great relationship with them and Mario is already pulling kids from IMG. In the past, these kids have gone to Clemson, Georgia, and Alabama. He's establishing a pipeline from IMG to UM and it's all good.

Not to really down play it but ....we have been getting IMG kids for quite some time. Doesnt really have anything to do with mario. I mean Steve Walsh was the AD for a few years if i can remember.

We never got the elite kids though

I still can’t believe this dude is coming to Miami.

I remember when Richt first got here he said “where are all the big guys”? I don’t think he will have to be saying that when he visits again with the ACC network next year.

The elite kids were already committed b4 transferring to IMG most of the time.....sort of what we just did.

I’d like to hear from a few people at UM in a candid interview about their first two weeks at UM and what they saw in comparison to their other stops in their career lol I imagine it would be beyond EMBARRASSING for Blake & Manny:

- Feld
- Radokovich

Those two to me would give such a detailed look into how **** poor things were here prior

Either way, we never got ‘em…

It’s always amazing how much better “development” is when you’re starting with 5 star guys.

We never got any of the top tier guys

Like Florida this year whos a guard
Huge difference

Kids elite

 

[gogeta4]

**** that list almost made me rethink us recruiting IMG . Definitely agree with @bobbydigius we getting higher quality players now.

Again IMG is always a unique recruitment AS ......Majority of their kids arent from FLORIDA....Add to it VERY SELDOM a kid from South Florida transfers to IMG.

When we are doing our recruiting trip by our coaches to IMG they are looking at kids already committed from Texas, California, Louisiana, Georgia, Chicago and wherever else these kids are from there. Off our list only Patchan (who is cane legacy) and Tyree St Louis are actual florida kids. both from Tampa...and if you want to count Redding who is from Pensacola who we most of the time consider out of state.lol

Quick scan of last years roster for them is a who's who of places UM doesnt recruit. Hard to get kids that you really dont have a relationship with while they play 1 year at IMG. 2 maximum. Most are doing like what we did with Wayne and Williams. They get their commitments then funnel them to IMG to focus on football for a semester or a year. Hence you saw alot of their ELITES go to Bama or certain schools they were placed their by the colleges most of the time

 

[theibisrules]

Impossible. Gaytors say he is much smaller. And 17 year olds never grow, right...

I just feel sorry for his mom and dad because they have to clothe and feed him geez

Seems like he would know to shut his mouth then
