QB:
Miami got its guy early with Nickel, now they need to hang on to him. I could see us going portal again next year, unless the 3 way battle produces a clear cut winner.

Led Georgia to a state championship in its highest classification. Continues to impress with release, accuracy, and although not a cannon, definitely enough arm.

https://www.hudl.com/profile/15935715/Carter-Smith Mich Commit
Two-sport (baseball) standout is top signal caller in Florida. Had serious UM interest before the Nickel commit
RB:
UM definitely taking 2 here. If we get some portal outs, or CWH ends up at WR or CB, could maybe even see 3 if they are the right ones.
https://www.hudl.com/profile/16136226/Girard-Pringle UM Commit
New RB coach Merritt’s first commit from a school that UM always whiffs at. Stock is soaring, and he is a true home run threat with 10.6 speed. Nice get here.
https://www.hudl.com/profile/15887512/Byron-Louis
Top local kid, and I think he ends up a Cane. Same high school as Mark Fletcher, but lot of former teammates at FSU as well. OSU, FSU, right there with UM at this time. Nice size, speed, vision combo

(ATH) Maybe my favorite overall RB tape this season. Canes new RB coach Merritt was on him fairly early, but now some bigger offers (OSU, etc) starting to roll in. Speed and cutting ability for a big kid is off the charts.

Others: Deandre Desinor, Delray Atlantic (ATH)…Kiandrea Baker, Central PSU Commit…Antwan Raymond, Clearwater….Kentrell Rinehart, Columbus OH
WR:
Home run last year for Kevin Beard even without Jeremiah Smith. We may bring something in via portal this summer, and I wouldn’t be surprised if next winter as well as we’ll likely lose George, Restrepo, and possibly the summer addition. 3 the likely number, but I could see only two as well.
https://www.hudl.com/profile/16469433/Cortez-Mills
I have him as the top player currently in Sofla, albeit is a weak year at the top, especially after last year’s reclassifications. Canes have as big a shot as anyone recruiting him.
https://www.hudl.com/profile/15899220/Waden-Charles UM Commit
Big, physical WR that can also play some safety. Has been committed to UM for months, but there are a lot of rumblings that he may not end up in this class.

Originally from the panhandle, he was the kid who broke his leg at the Cristobal camp the spring of his frosh year. Played last year at Western High in Lauderdale, now transferring to Chaminade.
https://www.hudl.com/profile/16589301/Dallas-Wilson Oregon Commit
One of the top overall players on UM’s board and one of the top WR’s in the country. Canes and others pushing hard for a flip here.
Joshua Moore's Video "Sophomore Spring Season "
Couldn’t find hull here, but physical specimen that UM, FSU, and a few others are on. Not sure he could commit today here in late April, but his UM recruitment definitely seems serious.

TE:
Will be interesting to see if the position is used more this year…The safe bet is yes, although to what degree? They will take 1, with an outside chance of 2, and there seems to be a big net being cast, definitely not like an offense that won’t use the TE much. Not much in-state this year.
https://www.hudl.com/profile/15722934/Brock-Schott (IN) UM Commit
Canes win out over OSU for one of nation’s TE. Lofton type that you can move around…Plays violently on defense as well.
https://www.hudl.com/profile/12750811/Elyiss-Williams (GA) GA commit
(ATH)…I imagine it will be tough with UGA’s recent track record at the position to pull a TE prospect from them, but UM supposedly putting some serious heat on this kid.
https://www.hudl.com/profile/16177173/Luka-Gilbert (OH) UM Commit
Big inline kid. Very strong blocker with good straight line speed. Outside chance he grows into a tackle, but nice looking TE prospect for now. Commits 4/8 to UM!

OL: I’d expect 4, maybe 5 here as CMC and Mirabal continue to build this as a strength of the team.
https://www.hudl.com/profile/16077311/SJ-Seuseu-Alofaituli (NV)
CMC and Mirabal have been recruiting him since their Oregon days from his national power HS, Gorman…They literally have 6 D1 OL senior OL this season! Crystal balls have floated in here for UM, but recent intel seems to suggest that was premature, possibly from both sides.
https://www.hudl.com/profile/16698226/Jaeylne-Matthews/highlights (NJ)
UM vs. Georgia and Tennessee here for excellent tackle prospect from NJ.

IMG by way of Detroit. Seems to really like UM and has visited a bunch. They may project him at center though, and others may be ahead of him.
https://www.hudl.com/profile/19427804/Lamar-Williams UM Commit
Sleeper prospect that moves really well for a big kid with plenty of growth potential. Stock rising since UM commitment as other offers have surfaced.

https://www.hudl.com/profile/16212323/Max-Buchanan
Versatil Central FLA linemen that UM seems to be very high on from. Could project to center but also other positions on the line.
https://www.hudl.com/profile/17171320/Solomon-Thomas FSU Commit
Early commit to FSU…But CMC and Mirabal will go to the very end here for what is likely their top tackle prospect.

https://www.hudl.com/profile/16077097/Isaac-Spike-Sowells-Jr (Ky)
UM gaining steam here. Not highly rated, but this kid may be right there or even higher on the Center board than the Bishop Gorman kd.
