Regardless of what you thought about Miami's 2013 recruiting class once National Signing Day came and went , head football coach Al Golden improved it by adding a very late 4* ATH commit by the name of Corn Elder. No, this isn't a wizard from the Shire. This is a 5'10, 165 pound ball of fury, a running back and safety in high school that also averages 21+ points a game for his high school basketball team. Elder plans to play both offense on the football team and point guard for the basketball team once he arrives on campus.
Story goes Golden only offered Corn after National Signing Day, once 5* running back Alex Collins chose Arkansas over the Canes. Elder than immediately committed to "his favorite school" via his twitter account. . The rest was history.
Elder is an extremely fast, extremely shifty back who should find a nice role as a change-of-pace (with Duke Johnson? Oh my) and as a WR. I envision Elder seeing the field as a Percy Harvin-type hybrid. That's scary.
Before seeing Corn don the green and orange, watch him make kids cry in high school:
