So in these next few months what happened.....
Miami’s class ranks No. 1 in the country.
“It’s awesome,” cornerbacks coach Mike Rumph said. “We’ve got some really good kids, some national kids that they’re starting to believe in the University of Miami and once that starts it’s a downhill affect where down the line it’s going to be hard for kids to come because we’re going to have so many really good kids in front of them.
“Coach (Mark) Richt talks about it all the time as far as just being a good recruiter and staying tenacious about staying on top of the kids and this staff has done a great job and has taught me a lot as far as doing those things well too.”
Rumph is in his second year at Miami after a three-year stint as head coach of American Heritage School winning two state titles and producing a number of Division I players.
As a recent high school coach, he has a perspective on the impact of a school gaining momentum in the recruiting world.
“These kids all know each other with all of the 7-on-7s going on so when half the kids on your 7-on-7 team are committed to UM and talking about the University of Miami, it’s easy for it to appeal to them,” Rumph said. “We have that advantage with South Florida because they come to practice and they come to our scrimmages to see what we’re doing. The proof is in the pudding.
“All we’ve got to continue as a team is putting good products out there and just staying on top of the kids with what they’re doing, keeping in touch with them, and when the season rolls around and we’re a playoff team and we’re excellent or what we should be doing as a team there’s going to be a lot of kids trying to get into the University of Miami.”
