Miami Hurricanes Recruiting: Signing Day Predicitions
The Miami Hurricanes 2015′ class is currently ranked just outside the top 20 by most recruiting services, but The Canes still have some big targets left on the board. This Wednesday, February 4th, is when just about everything becomes finalized as recruits sign on the dotted line. The Canes currently have 18 commits and are looking to add a few more. A few of the CanesWarning writers took a shot at predicting where some of Miami’s top targets will land.
Kendrick Norton, four-star Defensive Tackle (Between Miami and Auburn)
Kendrick Norton is a DT that The Canes have been high on for quite some time. Norton has great size at 6’3-305 and moves very well for his size. Norton seemed to be a heavy Miami Hurricane lean until Auburn jumped in late and got him to take an official visit.
Andrew Ferrelli: Miami
Juan Toribio: Miami
Harry Kroll: Miami
Daniel Gould: Auburn
Justin Fessenden: Auburn
Daniel Nordwall: Auburn
Sam Jacobs: Miami
Peter Ariz: Miami
Marcus Lewis, four-star Defensive Back (Between Kentucky and Miami)
Marcus Lewis is a tall, fast DB that can succeed at either Safety or Cornerback. Kentucky has been all over Lewis lately.
Andrew Ferrelli: Kentucky
Juan Toribio: Kentucky
Harry Kroll: Kentucky
Daniel Gould: Kentucky
Justin Fessenden: Kentucky
Daniel Nordwall: Kentucky
Sam Jacobs: Kentucky
Peter Ariz: Kentucky
(Late edit: FSU and Texas have jumped in on Lewis and he may delay his decision by a week.)
Antonio Callaway, four-star Receiver (Between Miami and Florida)
Callaway is a very explosive receiver that always seemed to make plays when Booker T. needed him too. WVU tried to make a late push, but his recruitment has been long considered a Miami-Florida battle by many.
Andrew Ferrelli: Florida
Juan Toribio: Florida
Harry Kroll: Miami
Daniel Gould: Florida
Justin Fessenden: Florida
Daniel Nordwall: Florida
Sam Jacobs: Florida
Peter Ariz: Florida
Tyree St. Louis, four-star Offensive Lineman (Miami commit, but considering Florida)
St. Louis is currently the highest rated commit in Miami’s class according to ESPN. Tyree St. Louis can step in and play right away at just about any college. He is committed to Miami, but really enjoyed his visit to UF late in the process.
Andrew Ferrelli: Miami
Juan Toribio: Miami
Harry Kroll: Miami
Daniel Gould: Miami
Justin Fessenden: Miami
Daniel Nordwall: Miami
Sam Jacobs: Miami
Peter Ariz: Miami
Kevin Scott, four-star Defensive Tackle (Between Miami, USC, Ole Miss)
Scott was a late blooming DT. His recruitment blew up in January when he received a plethora of major D1 offers. Scott has not been playing football that long, but has an incredibly high ceiling.
Andrew Ferrelli: USC
Juan Toribio: USC
Harry Kroll: USC
Daniel Gould: Ole Miss
Justin Fessenden: USC
Daniel Nordwall: USC
Sam Jacobs: Miami
Peter Ariz: USC
Sheldrick Redwine, three-star Cornerback (Louisville commit, but still considering Miami)
Sheldrick Redwine is a corner with great size and cover skills. He plays the ball very well when it is in the air. He has been committed to Louisville for awhile, but The Canes jumped in and offered this past weekend.
Andrew Ferrelli: Miami
Juan Toribio: Louisville
Harry Kroll: Louisville
Daniel Gould: Louisville
Justin Fessenden: Louisville
Daniel Nordwall: Miami
Sam Jacobs: Louisville
Peter Ariz: Miami
Dexter Williams, four-star Running Back (Between Miami and Notre Dame)
The former Miami commit is one of the best RBs in the country. He was heavily leaning towards ND, but The Canes have been making a late push.
Andrew Ferrelli: Notre Dame
Juan Toribio: Notre Dame
Harry Kroll: Notre Dame
Daniel Gould: Notre Dame
Justin Fessenden: Notre Dame
Daniel Nordwall: Notre Dame
Sam Jacobs: Notre Dame
Peter Ariz: Miami
Terrell Chatman, three-star Receiver (Miami commit, but considering TCU)
Chatman is a freak athlete with great size, athleticism, and hands. Chatman has been committed to Miami since the summer, but really enjoyed his TCU visit last weekend.
Andrew Ferrelli: Miami
Juan Toribio: TCU
Harry Kroll: TCU
Daniel Gould: TCU
Justin Fessenden: TCU
Daniel Nordwall: Miami
Sam Jacobs: Miami
Peter Ariz: TCU
Antonio Howard, three-star Cornerback (Between Marshall, UCF and Miami)
Antonio Howard is an undersized, but crazy fast DB prospect. His decommitment from WVU came out of the blue and many are uncertain if Miami is still recruiting him.
Andrew Ferrelli: Marshall
Juan Toribio: Marshall
Harry Kroll: Marshall
Daniel Gould: UCF
Justin Fessenden: UCF
Daniel Nordwall: Marshall
Sam Jacobs: Marshall
Peter Ariz: Marshall
Torrance Gibson five-star Quarterback (Ohio State commit, considering Miami And Auburn)
Gibson has been committed to Ohio State, but wants to play quarterback and realizes that OSU’s depth chart at QB is very deep. Miami is offering the opportunity to come in as a QB and got him to take a visit this past weekend. Gibson does fit Auburn’s system well and they have been on him for a long time.
Andrew Ferrelli: Ohio State
Juan Toribio: Auburn
Harry Kroll: Auburn
Daniel Gould: LSU
Justin Fessenden: Ohio State
Daniel Nordwall: Ohio State
Sam Jacobs: Ohio State
Peter Ariz: Ohio State
Evan Shirreffs three-star Quarterback (Between Miami, if offered, and a bunch of other Ivy League schools)
Shirreffs is an extremely talented, laser accurate QB prospect. He has prototypical size at 6’6-200 and has put up incredible numbers. He missed his junior year with a thumb injury and would be a great under the radar pick up for any college.
Andrew Ferrelli: Miami
Juan Toribio: Miami
Harry Kroll: Miami
Daniel Gould: Miami
Justin Fessenden: Miami
Daniel Nordwall: Miami
Sam Jacobs: Not Miami
Peter Ariz: Not Miami
