fresh off of an Ohio State visit, rocking Miami gear. He will head to Coral Gables for his next visit, then Arkansas. Long way to go in this recruitment…
No doubt the Canes were the most prevalent program brought up at IMG today. Can’t say that’s happened prior in my experience covering the school since it became a football power.
