This is how the thread will work. During the camp, I will edit this original post with updates as they come in. Expect plenty of action over the next couple of days.

Friday, July 15th is supposed to be for the underclassmen in high school (9th and 10th) grade. Registration for tomorrow begins at 11 a.m. and the camp will run from 1-3 p.m.

Here are a few essentials to get you ready for the weekend.

Let's get to work.


Live Updates


********************************************************************************************************

10:46 p.m Thursday: The first interesting tidbit I've heard is that Miami coaches are really pushing to get all the prospects down here for multiple days as possible. For example, a large percentage of the upperclassmen who will compete on Saturday will still be in attendance for Friday's underclassmen camp. The staff has stuff planned for the older guys and really just want them together as a group for as long as possible. Also, don't be surprised to see a handful of 2019 prospects compete on Saturday with the older guys.

7:58 a.m. Friday: Gino Torretta just confirmed to me that he will be a guest coach on Saturday night.

8:28 a.m. - Cleveland Browns RB Duke Johnson will be in attendance this weekend, according to a source.

10:57 - 2018 University HS 5-star RB Lorenzo Lingard has arrived. Passes the eye test

11:00 - 2017 QB Commit N'Kosi Perry tweets that he is on his way to Miami.

11:03 - I'm hearing that Miami will really push academics hard with Amari Carter this weekend. His focus on academics is an essential part of his decision, according to multiple sources close to the situation. Battle with Notre Dame that the Canes feel confident about.

11:07 - A few other studs already in appearance.

2018 Champagnat Catholic LB Donovan Georges

2017 Miami safety commit Billy Gibson

11:15 - 2017 DE D.J. Johnson (Sacramento) is on campus. Craig Kuligowski showing him around. Big priority here and he's another one who passes the eye test.

11:50 - Deejay Dallas has arrived in Miami and he will be on campus soon, he tells me.

Forgot to mention earlier that I saw former Tampa Bay Bucs Super Bowl-winning QB Brad Johnson was in attendance earlier with his son Max Johnson (2020 QB). Freshman in HS with great size (6-2) and is a lefty. Throws a nice ball. Holds Miami offer.

4:45 - Palm Beach Gardens safety Amari Carter is on campus. Has been there for a few hours.

Looking like it'll clear up shortly, but the rain is coming down pretty hard right now.

I want to see how Njoku performs in 1on1 against south Florida talent. I hope Shawn Davis gives us a look also. Wilson looks like a lock to UF right now.
 
Man I hope this camp doesn't have TOO many prospects where someone will whine and say they aren't getting attention. I think it was a camp uga had last year where a rb who came to visit said they didn't even get to talk to the coaches. I think it was fils aime
