The commitment, or re-commitment of Romello Brinson to the Miami football program on Saturday was the latest example of the volatile nature of recruiting. Brinson is the third former Hurricanes de-commit to re-commit to Miami.

An article earlier this month by 247Sports.Com ranked de-commits by schools using the star system. A de-commit with five stars was assigned five points, four-stars, four points, etc. Four-star wide receiver Romello Brinson became the third former Miami football de-commit to re-commit to the Hurricanes.

Brinson’s commitment, or re-commitment to the Miami football program on Saturday joined running back Thad Franklin and WR Jacolby George as former de-commits to the Hurricanes who have re-commited after previously de-committing. Franklin re-commited to Miami in February after de-committing in December.

Brinson and George both backed off their commitments to the Miami football program following the Hurricanes loss to FIU in November. The pair of four-star WRs have since rejoined the 2021 Miami football recruiting class this month. Franklin is also a four-star commit. Miami now has the nation’s ninth-ranked 2021 class.

The commitment from Brinson pushed Miami ahead of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Notre Dame, Iowa and LSU. The 2021 Miami recruiting class ranks third in the ACC behind Clemson, who has the nation’s second-best class and North Carolina who is ranked fifth overall. Brinson’s re-commitment has a lot to do with Rhett Lashlee.

The Hurricanes’ new offensive coordinator is installing an up-tempo, spread that will utilize the talent from South Florida at RB and WR better. The new offense will put players in space that allows them a chance to use their skill set. Brinson told Inside the U his thoughts on the spread.

"“I really like the spread offense, when people can get the ball to the receivers and stuff like that so they can make plays.”"

Miami is expected to run about 15 more plays on offense in the future than they did in 2019. With Lashlee calling the plays in 2019, SMU finished seventh with 1,037 offensive plays from scrimmage. Using a pro-style offense, Miami was 91st with 844 offensive plays. That’s a difference of 14.84 plays per game.

Analysts are perseverating on Miami De-commits. dark. Next

Going into the spread will also allow the skill position players a chance to operate more in space and utilize their speed and shiftiness more. The Hurricanes should be deep and talented at RB and WR once the Class of 2021 signed their National Letters of Intent in December.
