WR Daylyn Upshaw commits to Miami

[Damiencane86]

I worry about the evals of this staff at the skill position.

Really ? So you aren't pleased with our current rb commit and none of the WR's we are after or the rb's/wr's we've landed the last couple years ? Interesting

Don't understand it man. Mario's been here 3 years and people are still doubting him.

It’s easy to see when people are trolling

There’s “evals” our staff has clearly made with positions like OL, CB that we need to see play out

With skill positions we’ve been getting guys that have been recruited by everyone. It’s not the same

Maybe someone like CWH applies? Shemar Kirk? But for the most part our skill guys have been dogfights with top flight programs. Those aren’t evals. So it doesn’t even make any sense.

I'm not seeing the lack of speed everyone else is.

Caveat: no idea what to look for on receiver tape from high school and no clue if this kid is any good or not.

That said: the lack of speed label on here gets almost universally applied to non-South Florida kids. Gotta bake that in to these evals.

Some criticism is always fine but our evals have been pretty strong from my vantage point. We've had some misses of course, Baxter at rb year 1 stung and then Jeremiah even worse, but we are hitting way more than missing.

 

[BALLHAWKU]

Anyone know the kind of competition he plays?

Looks flat footed so his speed could improve if he learns how to run correctly. Kinda a jag imo. Like if Jacolby didn’t have a second gear.

That’s a top school in Alabama they play legit competition. That’s a Auburn hub same school Cohen played for

But those weren’t evaluation misses, those were recruiting misses.

Evals turn into who you eventually recruit. The OP stated they didn't like who we were going after as a general statement.

Trust my staff, trust the eval. If Mario and KB say he’s a Cane, bring him on. Welcome to Miami young man.

No idea how fast he is but he doesn't look slow thats for sure. Baffling to me how Miami has had Berrios and now Restrepo produce at high levels and posters complain about speed on a recruits tape. Only thing that matters is if he will have an A+ work ethic and competitive nature to be the best player he can be.

 

[TruCane81]

Adjustment at :57…Route running at 3:00

That's BIG TIME

For those saying he's slow…Then every day on that tape must be running a 5.2…Because except for the late underthrows, he's 3 to 5 yards past everyone DB on those deep balls. (I understand that is the route running, but still…He's not Santana Moss, but he's not hurting for speed either)

He is the Bill Walsh type receiver. His body control is stupid and he put dbs on roller skates over and over. Very strong and hard to bring down.

I think this kid becomes a strong playmaker for us. Great complement for some speed receivers.

Posters complain ... period...LOL!!!... The tape coulda been blank.. doesn't matter...

To our fake fans.....the Miami HC is the Boogey Man (BABA YAGA). He's everywhere and you're never there.

Only thing that matters is can he get open and can he catch on contested throws…

lol not because they were white skinned meant they were/aare slow.

1.) both hare hispanic...

Braxton Berrios runs a sub 4.4 40 and an insane shuttle.

Restrepo is probably int he 4.5 highs but he is also quick with shuttle and built at like 5'10 200

But i 100 percent get your point lol

 

[CANEMC]

Will he stick after the Auburn McDonald's bags arrive?

 

[bobbydigius]

I mean, it’s not a whale but this kid is a solid pickup and we have done way worse before. Some of those early 24 pickups were head shakers. This kid can play.
