Nothing unites the current Miami Hurricanes with legends of the past and the program’s top recruiting targets like UM’s annual Paradise Camp. It serves that purpose even more so than some of the Hurricanes’ biggest college football Saturday showdowns.
After a year without Paradise Camp due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Miami’s marquee recruiting event is back on in Coral Gables on Saturday.
Since former Hurricanes coach Mark Richt started Paradise Camp in 2016, top talent has traveled to UM, sometimes from out of state, to showcase their skills in several drills, 1-on-1 work and 7-on-7 play. Past camps have brought future NFL first-round picks such as Jerry Jeudy, Gregory Rousseau and DeVonta Smith to Miami when they were in high school.
