The Miami Hurricanes are back on the commitment scoreboard after missing on a few recent recruiting targets to announce college pledges in the past week.
Four-star athlete Chris Graves picked UM over Florida, South Carolina and LSU in a Friday evening announcement that aired on CBS Sports HQ. A two-way player that also returns kicks, Graves figures to play cornerback at Miami, although more of his high school tape is at receiver. His main recruiters on the Hurricanes’ coaching staff were defensive backs coach Travaris Robinson and cornerbacks coach DeMarcus Van Dyke.
“DVD and Coach Rob, I had a tremendous relationship with DVD and Coach Rob,” said Graves on the livestream, adding a conversation with Carolina Panthers first-round cornerback Jaycee Horn, who played under Robinson at South Carolina, helped him make his decision.
