Orson Charles of Tampa, Fla. said he nearly committed to Miami during a recent visit to the ACC school. "It crossed my mind, but then I decided I needed to come back home and talk over things with my mom and pastor," Charles said. When asked to rate his trip to Miami, Charles scored it a "10." Explained Charles, "I really did enjoy myself. I got to talk with a lot of players. I feel like it is an up-and-coming program." Charles is a member of the AJC's Super Southern 100 and rated as the nation's No. 1 tight end by Rivals. He has 29 scholarship offers, and said Oregon appears to on the verge of making an offer.

Better ask your mother if it's okay. At least your staying with a school in your own state. Kudos.

I have family who went to the University of Miami. That campus is BEAUTIFUL. If I was an impressionable high school kid I would commit on the spot.
