USC had 5 star QB Bryce Young committed for the better part of a year. Behind the scenes, Alabama was recruiting him, too. Given the state of USC football recently, it was assumed that Young would probably decommit at some point and end up at Bama. Last september, that's exactly what happened. While this was going on, Dan Enos was actively recruiting another 5 star Cali QB - Jake Garcia. He visited Miami with his family last March and seemed to be genuinely interested. All us Miami fans got our hopes up that Garcia was our guy. When Bryce Young flipped his commitment to Bama, Garcia jumped on it and days later, committed to USC. There went our hope for a 5 star QB. USC also said that they were possibly taking 2 QBs in the 2021 class - at the time, it didn't seem to bother Garcia.
Fast forward to this winter when Lashlee came on board. He began to recruit a few guys immediately. Miller Moss, another 4 star QB from Cali was one of them. Both Lashlee and Manny also made a visit to Garcia in Calif during their February visits. Moss has been taking his time making a decision -COVID made the process slower by making visits impossible. He didn't seem to have much interest in Miami but USC remained one of his 4 finalists. There has been speculation that Garcia may decommit from USC if Moss does commit there in the near future. No one knows for sure. If that happens, Miami could be on Garcia's radar again. At least that's what we all hope. The West Coast reporters have all put their cbs on Moss committing to USC in the past 24 hours. Steve Wiltfong, the 247 "Expert" has also done that as of today. It's expected that Moss will make a decision public in the next week or two at most.
So we will see what happens with Garcia... I think that's the story in a nutshell...
