Through the Smoke: A Miami Hurricanes football podcast

The Miami Hurricanes pulled off a surprising big time commitment on Thursday evening, landing five-star wide receiver JoJo Trader.

Trader (6-1, 175) ranks as the No. 25 overall player in the country, according to the industry generated 247Sports Composite and is now Miami’s highest ranked commit.

With the pledge, the Hurricanes now leap inside the Top 20 of the 247Sports National Team Recruiting Rankings.

What type of player did Miami land in Trader? What does his pledge mean to the future of the UM offense? What type of statement does this commitment make?

InsideTheU’s David Lake and Gaby Urrutia discuss all these topics and more in the latest episode of Through The Smoke.
