Canes Hoops Land 5-Star SG Jalil Bethea
Photo by Mitchell Layton/Getty ImagesWhat a week for Miami Hurricanes recruiting! Last Thursday, Coach Cristobal and his staff secured a commitment from 5-start defensive end Armondo Blount. Today, Coach L and his staff land 5-star shooting guard Jalil Bethea. Bethea is 2024’s sixth-ranked overall player and the highest-ranked recruit in program history.
Coach L is back to where he was recruiting-wise before the BS Adidas FBI probe that set Canes Hoops back several years (I still get irritated just thinking about it). Bethea follows two 4-stars to Miami: Small forward Isaiah Johnson-Arigu, a Top-100 recruit, and shooting guard Austin Swartz, a Top-40 recruit.
