I typically don’t repost things I write on other boards here but I feel it’s necessary to provide perspective on this topic.

Oregon 2021 class Composite #6 overall class: 15 top 247 signees
Blue Chip Commits before May: 5
3 of the 5 committed the fall their Junior year 2019

Oregon 2019 Class number 7 overall composite 11 total top 247 signees
Commits before May 2018: 1
3 of the 11 committed in May 2018

Oregon 2018 #13 Class: 10 top 247 signees
Commits before May 2017: 3

I excluded the 2020 class because of Covid. But the main point of this is to illustrate how Mario operates historically and what to expect moving forward. It’s fair to put a baseline at 10 top 247 composite signees something Miami has only done twice in 12 years.

What’s more pertinent for our fans to understand is when you’re chasing big time players you have to play the game. Mario’s top two recruits he’s ever signed both committed at NSD in Sewell and Thibideaux.

Out of the 37 top 247 players he signed in 2018,2019, and 2021 only 8 of the signees committed before May leading into their senior year.

Some people aren’t meant for this but under Mario we aren’t settling for less and it’s going to be a methodical grind towards a top 5-10 class. The guy has proven he’s a closer. We haven’t had a coaching staff of this magnitude in over 20 years. Stop worrying about commitments, I promise you he will get the job done. Sit back and relax. June we’ll get the ball rolling!

Mope response:
Don’t believe you.
The sky is falling, fold the program.
We aren’t getting anybody.

Mans out here crying and its May. If we get all these commits and schools spend the whole season going after them, they cry off every report of them even taking a call. All man need to do is chill, enjoy the summer, the beach ,your time your kids and watch the ride.

Bro fans writing people off in May for taking visits to other schools lol kids put us in their top 5 and fans cry because they only paid their way to Miami twice this year. Big time guys take visits. Danny Miaz and Al Folden have scarred the fan base lol

We’re used to our HC loading up on commitments from dudes we’ve never heard of, offering top kids then never calling them again, and then follow that up with a **** season. We gotta let it go! Times have changed
 
I expect about 50-60% of our classes to be from Florida, and half of that from South Florida. Mario won't have a monopoly on the South Florida elites, no coach would. But I expect him to bring in great OOS talent. National recruiting is his forte.

Solid post, bruh. This crootin’ **** ain’t for the weak.

No disagreement here, but I am curious to see how NIL shifts things. More guys are likely going to drag this out looking for the biggest check. Could see a lot of guys waiting til after ESD when teams get desperate.

This is a solid post. I expect Miami to finish with a top 10 class. I also wonder why we have so few commits at this point. This is not a mope post, i just wonder.
 
I don’t think that I fall under the category of mope…but mainly impatient in wanting to get more instant gratification. I appreciate the thread and setting expectations as to when we may to start to see the class fill up. That being said, there seems to be a reversion from players announcing on early NSD to back to traditional NSD. I think that this is a smarter play by kids as they keep options open and select the best place for themselves based upon their unique goals which play out during the season and postseason (which teams may be winners and which losing their coaches, which are having guys looking like they are moving on to the draft and opening space for that position, etc.). I expect a bunch of commitments beginning in June with OVs and camps. But I expect given our change of staff and scheme that we will likely get a bunch of kids that will commit during the season that are evaluating what we are going to look like from a competition standpoint and for kids to see how they will fit in to the scheme accordingly. This is assuming that Mario is whale hunting and not scraping the bottom 4*s, which I imagine he could have a class full of right now if he wanted to. Unfortunately, with how last season’s recruiting went with Manny, I think that most of us have PTSD with the recruiting relying on the season. In the meanwhile, we have no choice but to give Mario our faith to pull this off. Just my $0.02.

we could see kids ending things earlier because NIL is wrapped up as well.
