Miami Hurricanes News: Early NSD, Players discuss FSU
The Miami Hurricanes Men’s and Women’s basketball teams signed Top 10 classes nationally during Early National Signing Day on Wednesday. Center Matt Lee, defensive lineman Jared Harrison-Hunte, guard Javion Cohen and linebacker Francisco Mauigoa spoke to the media on Wednesday.
The Miami Men’s Basketball program signed five-star shooting guard Jalil Bethea, four-star SG Austin Swartz and three-star small forward Isaiah Johnson-Arigu on Early National Signing Day. Bethea who is the seventh-ranked player in the 2024 Miami Class is the highest-graded signee in Hurricanes basketball history.
Cohen and Lee were asked about their perspectives on playing in the Florida State-Miami game for the first time and the Seminoles’ defensive line. Harrison-Hunte mentioned that FSU is a rivalry game, but the Hurricanes focus on winning every week. Mauigoa compared FSU-Miami to the Apple Cup.
The Miami Women’s basketball program signed guards Ahnay Adams, Leah Harmon and Simone Pelish on Wednesday. Harmon is a five-star point guard who is the 30th-ranked player in the 2024 class and the eighth-best point guard. Adams is the 37th-ranked prospect and 10th-ranked PG in the 2024 Class.
Miami postgame show host Alex Donno wrote about “Five Quarterback Scenarios For The Miami Hurricanes Against The Florida State Seminoles.” The play of Tyler Van Dyke is the biggest question for the Florida State-Miami game on Saturday. Many or most Miami football fans want Van Dyke benched.
The majority of the focus ahead of the Florida State-Miami game on Saturday is on Van Dyke. Florida State, Miami and National Media outlets are all writing stories if and/or should Van Dyke start on Saturday. Miami will not likely reveal their starting QB until the offense takes the field at Doak Campbell Stadium.
