Canes Cookout: Hurricanes to Host Star-Studded Group of Blue-Chip Prospects (Visitors List)

The recruiting dead period has lifted, providing Mario Cristobal and the Miami Hurricanes coaching staff with a valuable one-week window to kickstart their recruitment efforts before their 2023 Fall Camp begins on August 1st. Eager to make the most of this opportunity, they are putting on their recruiting caps and getting to work.

Miami has an impressive group of prospects expected to make their way down to sunny Coral Gables, headlined by Miami’s class of 2024 five-star wide receiver commit, Joshisa Trader, along with California defensive lineman Aydin Breland and Mississippi defensive lineman Kamarion Franklin, both five-star prospects. Additionally, they plan to host Alabama wide receiver Ryan Williams and Jacksonville (FL) offensive lineman Solomon Thomas, two highly-touted five-star recruits from the class of 2025. There is also a secret high-profile visitor scheduled to attend, but we cannot disclose their name at this time.

In total, Miami will be welcoming over 30 blue-chip prospects (those ranked five or four-stars according to the recruiting industry services) throughout the week, culminating in their main event on Saturday, the “Canes Cookout.” LifeWallet Sports has compiled the list of expected visitors, and we will update it by the minute as it continues to grow.
