Coach Mark Richt's First Recruiting Class at Miami Includes 17 Florida Signees

Mark Richt's first Miami recruiting class has a distinct Florida feel.

Of the 18 new Hurricanes, 17 of them hail from the Sunshine State. Among them include five early enrollees, and the class got stronger Wednesday with the signing of wide receiver Ahmmon Richards _ who was considered to be on the bubble.

"We truly believe we got guys that can help us win," Richt said. "And that's what it's all about."

The class also includes Michael Irvin Jr., the son of Hall of Famer and former Hurricane great Michael Irvin. He'll play tight end, as will newcomer Jovani Haskins of Bergenfield, New Jersey, the only non-Floridian who signed in this class.
