*Notes*
-Leonard Williams reportedly not coming according to D$ but TOS's have him coming so I grey him out, trusting D$..

-Quinton Powell was supposed to come with close friend Leonard Williams on his official visit to UM this weekend..
Not sure if he is still coming since Williams cancelled. He says he likes Miami and the coaches told him they are
working on a new defense and want him to be part of it..

-Josh Harvey-Clemons was going to visit Louisville this weekend but said Coach Barrow was relentless and came after him hard..
Clemons said it was Barrows persistence that made him change his mind, he will skip the visit to Louisville and visit Miami this weekend..
Miami is a late comer but you can't win if you don't play. He will spend time with his friend Raphael Kirby on his visit..

-Leonte Carroo says he called Miami for a visit but it's not final yet because UM is working on his paperwork so he can come this weekend..
Wanted to come on a visit with teammate Darius Hamilton and says Darius is serious about Miami..
He will take his time and not rush into anything regardless of what Darius does..

It's SO refreshing going into signing day with high quality recruits visiting because they are seriously interested.

Really appreciate the hard work the staff is putting in.

We will see how it works out. Common sense says all these guys wont make it for the visits and we will probably have a surprise or two.

Can't.....wait.....

Duke reminds me of D Wade recruting Bosh and Bron...We got Deon (Bosh), now the 2 of them have to close with Lebron (Howard)...Howard is going to say on ESPNU on Weds that he is keeping his talents on South Beach....I still think he is ours to lose...Everyone else on the list we have a real shot at.

almost a perfect class, except for...


WE ARE ****ED at the TE position.

Figured we would take AT LEAST 1 more. Luckily TE isnt a major game changing position, but as we have seen in the past, incorportating the receiving TE has KILLED alot of teams, the Hurricanes most definitely included. The blocking TE can pay huge dividends in the run game. I dont know whats going on with Cleveland, but if Im looking at this right we have:

Cleveland (if he ever sees the field again)
Walford (Should start from jump street)
Dye (blocking)
Perry? Not sure if he will be TE or DE
and Hollifield, someone who has basically played 3 full games of football his whole life.


Just one stud at TE would have filled that need, but we will still have a hole there next year.
 
With Streeter leaving, TE becomes even more important.

It's a real downer when you look at the roster, but I wouldn't be surprised to see us land one before next week. You can bet TE is at the top of the list for 2013 since you know Golden wants to make it a priority anyway.

Even with a class this big, with the volume we needed to acquire and talent...one position will always be left out...it just happened to be tight end. We swung for the fences with Sean Price and after he cut us...there just wasn't anyone out there interested that was of any quality.
 
Im already happy with this class even if it ended today. Getting even 1 of the guys this weekend and i would be thrilled.
