The Miami football program dominated high school recruiting in Florida with the most four and five-star in-state recruits signed for 2021.

When Manny Diaz was hired as the new Miami football head coach in 2018 he made a point of the Hurricanes needing to dominate South Florida recruiting and bringing back the State of Miami. Miami is well on its way to owning Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties again in high school recruiting.

The State of Miami was a concept began by the godfather of the Miami football program former head coach Howard Schnellenberger.
