Richt, Hurricanes encouraged by Miami's early recruiting efforts

None of them are going to take any kind of victory lap, not yet, not now.

But make no mistake – the Hurricanes are enjoying the fruits of their labors on the recruiting trail.

Miami picked up verbal commitments from two 2018 four-star prospects Monday when both Miami Southridge receiver Mark Pope and Palm Beach Gardens safety Gurvan Hall pledged to the Hurricanes.

Their respective announcements helped bolster a recruiting class that, early on, has been pegged by several analysts as the best in the country. And the announcements created a social media firestorm that Miami coaches were only happy to participate in themselves, now that NCAA rules allow them to.
