In this story:

Miami's four-star quarterback commit would like for other schools to stop trying to recruit him.

Dereon Coleman has been committed to the Hurricanes since early July 2024 and has not been interested in other schools trying to recruit the talented quarterback.

"My recruitment has been shut down since I committed," Coleman said. "I don't know why schools keep offering me. I'm not going to see any other schools. I only have one official visit and that's Miami."

The Orlando, Fla. native still won't budge even with the amount of pressure sent his way. It's simple. The "U" is about family and causes him to not turn his eye.

"I've always been all in on Miami," Coleman said. "The coaching staff, how they treat my family making sure all of us are great is what helps the most."
