Miami (Fla.) Booker T. Washington four-star 2025 Florida cornerback commit Ben Hanks Jr. visited Miami Friday for the Hurricanes’ game against Virginia Tech as the Canes continue to push to flip the No. 66 overall prospect and No. 8 cornerback in the On300. His thoughts?

Plus Miami has now offered Richardson (Texas) defensive lineman Jaimeon Winfield, and he shares where things stand.
And, as always, stay tuned today for any news that may come up.
I’m always glad to get a win, and we showed some grit, at least on offense…..but our defense is not good enough to make the playoffs, or certainly not good enough to do anything in the playoffs, if by some miracle we do make it. Our DL did nothing against a mediocre OL that was dominated by Rutgers, and we couldn’t cover, and our tacklingvwas terrible.
MIAMI HURRICANES QUOTE OF THE DAY
Neil Gershman-Zooba Images
“If you could somehow orchestrate a game like this where you can grow and learn and still get a win, you’d love to do that, but there’s no way to do that. Sometimes, you’ve got to go through it. Some of today’s back and forth stuff, again, we caused it. But look, that could be a locker room with an L right now and it’d be a lot worse. We found a way to win. I could sit here and talk about a billion things that we could have done better. I just don’t want to do that. I want to focus on the fact that this team, probably, over the last 20 years lost a game like this. This team found a way to win, so they can take that however they want. I’m proud of the effort. I’m not proud of the way we coached and played but sometimes you’ve just got to find a way to get a W and we found a way to get it.”
