MESSAGE BOARD POST OF THE DAY

Best signing day I’ve watched here … Posted by Seeno305

Mario and his backing is so much fun to watch!

MIAMI HURRICANES QUOTE OF THE DAY

“It came down to the last two minutes. Either I stay home or I go to Ohio State. It was a close call, but I just went with my gut feeling and I just chose Ohio State. It was a close call. The things (Miami) did this year with the offensive side of the ball, receiver play, you’ve got great coaches there. I know a lot of those coaches there. My family knows a lot of the coaches there. If I chose to go to Miami, I know I would have been straight on and off the field for sure.”
