On Sunday night, Florida State’s loss on the recruiting trail proved to be Miami’s gain.
Linebacker Bradley Jennings, Jr. announced he was verbally committing to Mark Richt and the Hurricanes on Twitter less than a week after breaking his verbal pledge to the rival Seminoles.
“I’m officially committed to the University of Miami #CaneGang #Squad17,” Jennings wrote on Twitter. His message was immediately retweeted by members of Miami’s football staff which, since a recent adjustment in NCAA rules, is allowed to like or share tweets from prospects without commenting on those recruits.
