Miami locks up local QB after Junior Day visit

Miami has to like this commitment.

The Miami Hurricanes just got a big verbal commitment from dual threat quarterback N'Kosi Perry on Saturday. Perry comes out of Vanguard High School in Ocala, right in the Gators' backyard so coach Mark Richt has to love that. He visited Miami over the weekend for its Junior Day and that put him over the top it seems.

Perry is rated as the 10th-best dual threat QB in the class of 2017 and 43rd best recruit in the state of Florida. He's almost 6'4" and weighs 176 pounds. He is likely a redshirt candidate if he doesn't put on any more weight, but still a nice piece to have in your back pocket if you're Richt.
