From the Miami roster/depth chart, he looks like a 6'2" 225 lb. DE. A sophomore in 2020.

Great news! Really excited about the defensive players this staff is assembling.

His bio from the Miami team page:

High School: Four-star prospect by ESPN.com…Earned three-star rating from 247Sports.com and Rivals.com…Rated as 23rd-best prospect at his position by ESPN.com…Ranked No. 38 at position by 247Sports.com…Selected to 2017 Miami Herald All-Dade First Team…Helped guide South Dade to Class 8A Regional Playoffs and 9-2 record senior year…Registered 87 total tackles and forced pair of fumbles during senior season…Was named to 2016 Miami Herald All-Dade First Team while playing for Keys Gate High School…Logged 63 tackles and registered 15 sacks during junior season…Chose Miami over offers from Florida State, Alabama, Florida and Auburn, among others.

4-star recruit with offers from Alabama, Auburn, Florida, and Florida State coming out of high school. I say we give him a chance.

Holy cow!

Is this our highest rated recruit ever?

Nevermind, I was going off the 4* rating by ESPN, according to his 247 rating, he will be our second highest rated recruit ever.

Now can we get some OL transferred in?

It's going to be a lot of fun getting to watch all of these newcomers! I can't imagine another instance of this much roster fluctuation (especially for the better).

Our highest rated recruit ever should be Byron Vaughns.

And man does that make your DB's look so much better than they are.

Will he play DE for us then? Hopefully he's a bit bigger now than 225 if so.

Also, as a sophomore in 2020, with the wacky 2020 rules does that mean he has 2 to play 2 or 3 to play 3?

This might be a quick rebuild.

As long as we don't rely heavily on 1 to play 1 guys.

With the wacky rules, he SHOULD be getting a medical redshirt for missing the 2019 season with an injury. That would give him 3 more years to play.

So far, I think we're like half and half, right?

1 to play 1: Mayberry, Bowling, and Rice
2 to play 2 or better: Bonner, Joyner, Vaughns, and Peoples (traditional JC transfer)

A kid I knew from my high school who was a few years younger than me walked on at Miami and eventually got on scholarship this past season as a guard. I wonder if he'd be willing to transfer

S & C coach will apparently be the deciding factor.

I expect the S&C Coach to be a big addition.

We just want him to get our offensive line to look like Alabama’s. Did you see those guys? HUGE! And they could move.

Here's the thread on a Miami forum about this:

https://www.canesinsight.com/threads/pa ... al.167417/

Interesting to read the comments. A lot of folks say he is a tweener that bounced around LB and DE. He just never found his place at Miami.

That's pretty true. Came in as a LB. Had some fairly significant injuries and never materialized. Not fast enough for LB and Miami had a lot of good depth at DE the last few years so he never got on the field. He played maybe 30-40 plays all year and has 6 career tackles. So there isn't much I can say about his production.

Personally, as a Miami/USU fan, if he is coming in as a LB, I am not that excited for the move. Miami's LB play was dreadful this year, really truly awful, and he couldn't crack the field at all. I think those injuries have really slowed him down for that position. Dropping down a level might help, but he probably projects best at DE where he didn't play simply because Miami was pretty good at that spot. He probably would have been the #5 DE at Miami had he returned there this year.

If he is coming in as a DE and can get to the 245 range, then I think he could be a really good addition assuming we go to a 4 man front.

The players are being told to plan on a 4-man front.
