In this installment of the Recruit Notebook, we meet a tall corner with game-ready skills, helping build depth at a position of desperate need: CB Jhavonte Dean.
In the quest for game-ready CBs, Miami targeted Blinn College (Brenham, TX) CB Jhavonte Dean early on in the 2017 cycle. A bigger corner at 6’2” 180lbs, Dean has the height that the Canes’ staff covets, and good skills on the field as well.
Like most JUCO players, Dean wasn’t a major recruit coming out of HS. The Homestead (FL) native attended South Dade HS and was teammates with former Canes WR Tyre Brady.
