With the news late Thursday regarding Miami’s withdraw from Kaden Henderson’s recruitment, the Canes are down to approximately six remaining recruiting targets for 2-4 scholarship slots.
Let’s take yet another look….
EDG DJ Jacobs*
Hometown: Roswell, GA School: Blessed Trinity Catholic
HT: 6'-5" | WT: 225 | Offers: 36 | Rating: 98 | Position Rank: 1 | Overall Rank: 1
Status: COMMITTED | Top Tier: Georgia commit
OV: UOV: 4/3-4
SUMMARY: Elite pass rushing prospect. Multi-sport athlete
(football, basketball). Brings size, power and a ton of physicality. In 2024, 112 tackles (35 TFLs) and 12 sack. Projects as a multi-year high-major starter with NFL upside down the road. Committed but still open. This could be a big NIL battle.

WR Quentin Hale*
Hometown: Corona, CA School: Corona Centennial
HT: 6'-3" | WT: 192 | Offers: 25 | Rating: 97 | Pos. Rank: 10 | Overall Rank: 57

Summary: Multi-sport athlete (Track); 11.61 (2.4) in the 100-meter dash, 23.71 (1.2) in the 200-meter dash, 5-6 in the high jump, 19-11 in the long jump and 44-8.75 in the triple jump. | In 2025, 62 catches | A long frame with chiseled physic. Good route running ability with good upside. Miami wants more length in its receivers and Quentin brings it. A potential red zone threat with his size and he is a willing blocker.
Can the Canes “flip” him.

WR Eli Woodard

Deep threat that can stretch defenses and flip the field with his long speed. | In 2025, 51 recep, 1070 yds, 17 TDs
Eli is completing his official visits. Cal is a serious contender due to his high school QB committing to the Bears. We should know his destinations within a few weeks. Will Miami wait?
