Recruiting Outlook: Defense 12/18

Devante Bond

Miami recently received a commitment from JUCO pass rusher Devante Bond.

A lot has changed with Miami's defensive recruiting since the beginning of December. Read on as we breakdown Miami's defensive recruiting for the 2013 class.

    • Very worried about our DT outlook, are there any local plan B kids that we could pull if we need to?

    • Dam I am so sick of getting kid's interest in us & grades turn out to be an issue. Before I was disabled-I was a car salesman for about 12 years & your easiest sell in the sales business is somebody with bad credit. Hell, they will buy anything as long as you can get them financed & this is about what it reminds me with in recruiting lately. We have a big time prospect with a lot of interest but can't get him financed basically what it amounts to. I'm not saying Miami needs to become a slum college or anything but in the Athletic Dept-We shouldn't have any higher standards than the State College. I mean they are who sets the standards-even get state help with funds where we don't so the very least, our AD should be bring this to Shalala & having a go around with her about this. We are losing entirely too much talent that wants to be CANES & just because of a few points we don't let them in. That is BS & something can really be done about this. If we have a recruit who is close, we should admit him, get him a tutor & at least give the kid a shot & see how he responds instead of just kicking him to the curb. Ya never know-1 of these kid's could turn out to be a scholar athlete with a little more maturity & especially what AG teaches his kid's. I mean this is something that really needs to be addressed with the AD & him & AG go to Shalala about this. She could at least try this & see how it works & I guarantee you, you give that 1 kid who may just need that extra help for a little bit-might just turn into 1 of the better students because he was given the shot & took it serious. I hope something is done about this in the near future-we can't keep losing elite talent just because a kid's grades are just a bit off, hell get involved & help the young man out !!!!

      It's sad to see a top DT not interested in Miami where they are in need and can possibly play early but i think well be ok with js J. Bostwick. We already have like 8 DTs. With an extra year under their belt n them knowing their the weakness of the team that they'll go harder. Unless it was a Juco guy i don't really care for a freshman DT. N none of these 2013 DT's seem to have that come in n make an immediate impact ability. Don't wanna give up a scolly to someone who most likely won't exceed. N im tired of settling for players. We should be making n taking our picks. I liked K. Bryant but now its f' em. But these other 2013 that we're interested in, n that are interested in us don't really jump out n catch my eye.

      I like all the DT's we are bringing back... Guys we were really young at the DT position last year.. King, Pierre,Moore, Ivery, Grimble, Briscoe... all those guys got valuable playing time except Briscoe who redshirted.. I thought Pierre was beginning to come into his own at the end of the season... I thought King and Moore showed they could play against the big boys against FSU... I watched the position closely because i played DT myself... With a year of training UTough and vets like to pass rush in the interior Green,Chikillo, and Porter (I think he's a absolute stud, but he just don't stay healthy) we are gonna be GOOd at the interior position next year... If we get a top notch player than great but don't settle when we can get a better player at another position.

    • if we get bostwick, bryant and another dt i'll be fine, we will bring many guys back and never know maybe a year older , stronger they can get it together so watch out maybe we are better then we think

      7578- everything you said bro is right on. I have to come clean & admit I have been 1 who has been pushing for the DT spot cause I guess last year when we missed on Goldman & a couple others & especially to FAGAHAWKS- I just really expected we would have had an easier time at that pos I guess & we had a good 1. It's possible we still may pull him, I'll tell ya this-if he wants to become a house hold name quick & everyone going "Hey-there's KB man that dude is bad " well, he better bring it on to the "U" cause as good as he may be-FSU does have some talent there 7 he would probably get RS'ed there this year I don't care what they are trying to sell him.

      But we do have some good young talent in the stables just when ya don't hear the names for like a year-kind of forget about them but-they should start to make a name for themselves this year as a lot more will be too. I remember when AC came to the Basket ball game & was kicking it with Duke & the gang-AC said" He couldn't believe how everyone was treating him & going "DUUUUUUUUUUUKEE When he came in" said :" that was cool & he could tell how the fans really care about ya here. Well there are a few we are on that can get that same treatment with some hard work & AC can be 1 & if KB wants to man up & come in & be as hard as he is trying to look in his picture then, he too can enjoy that early. That's what we got going on here-AG is building a family that every body cares about every body & looks out for each other-all that me crap & selfish BS is gone when you hit here or you will be too if you think that's how ya are gonna act with AG at the head.

      7578-Although we do have that young talent-what I was really counting on & hoping for bro was a couple like Toby Johnson who was looking for a school with early PT & who can get him to the next level well-Don't get much better than here for both so-these talented young DT's have a Golden opp right now & if they snub us why we are down a bit & still have that NCAA hanging-I wanna see their faces in another year or so why they were fooled into going to CHOKE ARTIST U & WE ARE WORKING ON #6- THAT'S RIGHT "U" FSWHO FANS THAT WILL READ THIS #6-IT'S A # YA'LL WILL NEVER SEE IN YOUR LIFE TIME & WHILE YA'LL ARE TRYING TO DO WHAT WE ALREADY HAVE-WE WILL JUST KEEP ADDING TO OUR S SO-BRING IT ON BUT FIRST YA'LL NEED TO HANDLE A LITTLE SCHOOL BY THE NAME OF NIU & THEY ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHERE THEY ARE GONNA SIT ALL 12,000 PEOPLE WHO SHOW UP-LMAO-Will be the least watched OB of all time with out a doubt-LOL

    • With the decommitting of Travis Johnson I'm not too sure if the Canes will address the TE position....again, or make this scholly into a defensive one. I PRAY that Beau commits to Miami so that they can have 3 solid TE's at that position, and then go back after Travis or just bring Wozniak in. But it all depends on BEAU'S commitment. If he comes down to Miami, I'd love to use this scholly on another defensive player

      Devin

    • i think the staff feels beau is a lock here and that was the final step in travis redshirting and that turned him off so they let him look around but i think travis is still a possibility if he doesn't love anywhere else i mean i bet he doesn't want to commit and 2 years later regret it

      Typical Cane fan, ALWAYS LIVING IN THE PAST!!! #6 is a number y'all won't ever see either! I know it's gotta kill you that we're going into YOUR BACKYARD this year and str8 jacking the top talent from y'all!!! It's gotta sting to realize that FSU has re-stablishedour presence in south Florida and will be a force to deal with on the recruiting trail for years to come. How does it feel to watch your top recruits( Collins, Bryant) continue to decommitt and end up choosing us instead??? And then you get to stand there with your dick in your hand while we will eventually land Coley, Thomas, and Kirkland as well!!!!

      Y'all haven't been relevant in damn near a decade and after the sanctions drop, it'll be another 5 years before we'll have to consider DUH U any kind of threat! I don't know how thrilled U are about your programs future, but allow me to say that IT'S GREAT TO BE A FLORIDA STATE SEMINOLE RIGHT NOW BOYS!!!!!

      One thing we do know for sure is that FSU WILL NEVER SEE 6 RINGS EITHER.
