** Right state, wrong school … Our Bill Greene threw in a Crystal Ball prediction for Deerfield Beach (Fla.) Class of 2020 star Jaylan Knighton to join the fold. That made us happy.
So we made a few calls on our own to see what the latest was. Knighton is big on the Buckeyes. And we entered the conversation thinking what most others thought: Florida State was the chief competitor for Knighton’s commitment.
But according to our source we had the right state … wrong school.
“Miami is the threat [for Knighton] not Florida State,” our Sunshine State-based source said. “ will recruit him under the radar. The kid will be on [Miami’s] campus but never mention it to recruiting reporters. [Hurricanes head coach Manny] Diaz knows this game and is not to be taken lightly.”
That info did not make us happy.
Stay tuned …
