This week marks almost a year to the day the Miami Hurricanes missed out on a commitment from blue chip player in their backyard.

Four-star defensive back Asante Samuel Jr. spurned the Canes in favor of the Noles on April 13, 2017.

On Saturday, four-star offensive lineman Dontae Lucas announced his commitment to the Noles over Miami and a host of other schools.

Lucas attends IMG Academy in Bradenton but is originally from Miami, Florida. FSU was thought to be a strong contender for Lucas as he was often tweeting positive things about the Noles.
