Miami (FL) Hurricanes

The Miami Hurricanes are still on the recruiting trails and making sure that they have no holes in areas like in the past. That starts with the Hurricanes landing in the top four schools for four-star safety Tamario Watkins.

He also lists South Carolina, Texas A&M, and Georgia in his final four. Proximity-wise wise he could be leaning toward the Gamecocks, and they have been recruiting him the hardest. It won't be easy for the Hurricanes, but also know that Mario Cristobal will try and get whoever he thinks will fit the program the best.

If you haven't noticed, the Hurricanes are reloading a secondary that saw clear depth issues in the previous two seasons. As of now, the Hurricanes have three cornerbacks committed, and they continue to work to bring more in from the portal and from recruiting.

The Hurricanes have the No. 8 recruiting class in the country after the commitment of Cantwell, and more stars will start to commit to the Hurricanes soon and boost that number.
