Miami has a strong two deep at db this year with over half of them back next year. We have five absolute thoroughbreds committed this cycle. I looked for this to be a possible issue sooner or later. Maybe he's the best of the breed or maybe not. If I were him I would at least look at other options. Why wouldn't he?
NO NO NO. Ohio St took 6 dbs last year - three 5 stars and three 4 stars. As much as I like our guys, they have a more loaded db depth chart than we do. And he may very well pick them.
We should not use our projected depth chart to excuse losing a top local player. Virtually every top school will have studs to compete against for playing time.
