Kacy Rogers & Clive Walford commit to The U…

Cornerback and tight end are two glaring weaknesses for Miami, which makes the verbal commitments of Kacy Rogers and Clive Walford that much more meaningful.

Again, the standard ‘verbal commitments aren’t binding’ and ‘a lot of time left between now and Signing Day’ type disclaimers you’ll see here whenever a kid (or two) gives their word in late July. Still, the fact that more needs are being met and that the Canes now have thirteen high school seniors pledging their allegiance for February’s “Signing Day”… one has to like the way things continue rolling.

Rogers is a defensive back out of Southlake Carroll in Texas who “chose” Miami over almost two dozen other scholarship offers. The 6-foot-2 baller is yet to visit UM’s campus, but has local ties as his father is the defensive line coach for the Dolphins.

Rogers calls his commitment “100%” at this rate and he’ll visit UM’s campus within the next month. Some of the schools also offering – Georgia, Ohio State, Tennessee, Nebraska and Notre Dame.

Regarding Walford, the 6-foot-6 tight end is a three-star out of Belle Glade and chose Miami over Purdue, FIU and Indiana. Walford spent some time on campus, met some current players, some NFL veterans working out at Greentree and contrary to the beliefs of others, actually gave Miami’s facilities rave reviews.

Even during the dog days of summer, Miami’s staff continues reeling in the talent. Stay tuned for the latest.
