247 write up on his Spring visit
“Today I wanted to get a feel for what I wasn’t able to get during Battle Miami,” Knight told InsideTheU following the visit. “Of course, I had to spend the whole day. All the coaches are super cool. They all came up to me and chatted with me a little bit. [Jahmile] Addae is a super cool guy. I have a lot of love for the guy and he has a lot of love for me and I can see it.”
“I can see the competition, the intensity, the family bond that they’re building through competition. I can see what they’re becoming because to me it looks like they’re bringing back what The U used to be. I can see [Mario] Cristobal is trying to build and they definitely have a lot of love for me and it was shown today,” Knight said.
“All in all, it boosts them on my list because just to see the beautiful campus, to see all the kids coming around, see the players just blending in with students. It was just something beautiful to see.”
Maybe Miami’s biggest competition at this stage is Florida State, who Knight will go back and see on April 1. He also has an official visit planned with the Seminoles for June 15-17.
Knight also plans on setting up an official visit to Miami, but he plans to give some other schools a look.
“They’re definitely two schools that I’m looking at a lot,” Knight said on whether its a Miami-Florida State battle for his talents. “There’s also other out-of-state schools I’m looking at such as Penn State, Texas A&M, Louisville, Illinois, Wake Forest, Pitt, and then you got some other schools that are starting to push and I’m starting to look at those schools also.”
