Not looking good now with Malone. Even though Malone is a salvage project, he has tremendous upside and we need help at DT. Salavea is useful for recruiting Polynesian kids, but he is getting a D+ so far with landing (or retaining) DTs.

So I guess I was just complaining just to complain about crappy DT recruiting according to many in this thread.

Get it addressed through the portal or we will get exposed during the season. With the depth we have they will either get injured or wear down throughout games and as the season progresses as usual!

I hate to say it, but our Poly guy Salive'a may be a huge issue, but they keep him around because having a Poly guy on staff is beneficial to recruit Poly's.

More portal shopping as usual at the position just like we had to under Diaz.

Miami has been working in silence. Expect business to pick up in a major way this weekend. Can't say too many names yet, but I think Canes fans will be happy.

- Miami will be hosting several important Portal kids this weekend. Expect an explosive running back, a physically gifted defensive back and another starting-caliber defensive back to emerge shortly. It has already been reported that Keivie Rose (All-Conference DT from Louisiana Tech) is visiting. He is a small-town kid who is visiting with his mother and brother. The visit will be critical here. If he comes, he will be more of a physical interior presence.

- As we've reported since he entered the Portal, I love Miami's chances with Tywon Malone (DT from Ole Miss). He would be more of the athletic, penetrating type.

- Two linebackers will be visiting- Konnor Near (Ferris State) and Larry Nixon (North Texas). Both are All-Conference players at their level and project as inside backers. Neer has three years of eligibility, while Larry Nixon has one. Miami wants competition there. Neer is coming for one day on a straight business trip. It is likely going to come down to Miami and Oklahoma, where he just visited.

- Miami really likes JUCO center Amaury Wiggins, who is visiting this weekend. He has three years of eligibility and could be the center of the future. Even if Wiggins comes, there is still a chance Lou Cristobal joins the program. The overall scholarship number is getting tight so there will need to be roster management.

- Miami is still in the market for a backup QB with the goal of redshirting Jacurri Brown, at his request. If the NCAA moves the redshirt cap from 4 to 6 games, which is on the table, it will make the process a lot easier.

- JUCO WR Shemar Kirk should be visiting tomorrow through Saturday. Miami loves him. They are still in the game with WR Zakhari Franklin (UTSA transfer) and WR JaQuae Jackson (JUCO All-American). WR Xzavier Henderson is not totally out of the picture but there are complications there.

- Miami feels good where it stands with Chicago products EDGE Marquise Lightfoot and DT Justin Scott. They are also in a very good place with Seattle IOL Isendre Ahfua, who they love. Another player of Samoan descent that Miami really likes is DT Jayden Jackson at IMG. He is being recruited by Francis Mauigoa. He is close with DT David Stone, who remains a major Miami priority.

- There is traction with DT Artavius Jones (Blountstown, FL). He fits the mold of a future NFL prospect with his basketball and offensive background at 280+. I like where Miami sits in this recruitment and I absolutely love the prospect.

- Miami is also in the mix with Aydin Breeland (Mater Dei, CA), TA Cunningham (Miami Central), Alex January (Duncanville, TX) and Marcus Downs (Greer, SC). I expect Miami to land a monster class at DT that could be four-deep or more.
Aydin breeland is that War Daddy type we need also doesn’t hurt his teammate is an amazing LT
