A week ago Yahoo! Sports dropped a mini-bomb that some thought would impact all things recruiting.
Days later, the University of Miami picked up four-star cornerback Artie Burns out of Miami Northwestern and today it was four-star safety Jamal Carter out of Miami Southridge who pledged his allegiance to ‘The U’, giving the Canes ten verbal commitments for the 2013 class — six four-stars and four three-stars, for those who keep score.
The six-foot-one, 185-pound Carter chose Miami over Florida State and LSU. He was recruited by linebackers coach Micheal Barrow, another Southridge product from the same neighborhood.
Carter cited that UM showed him love, puts tremendous talent in the NFL and that old school Canes return to the program. Carter is said to have a great football IQ and is a tremendous athlete. He is said to run a 4.4. and benches 300 pounds / squats 400 pounds.
A huge pick-up for ‘The U’. Welcome to the Canes family, Jamal!
