CC head coach Doug Madoski says star DT Calvin Heurtelou will sign with Miami today</p>— Jason Jewell (@jason247scout) <a href="https://twitter.com/jason247scout/statuses/413409679943802881">December 18, 2013</a></blockquote>
If true, the Canes will have effectively swapped JUCO DTs in the 2014 class. With Dalvon Stuckey out of this class, Heurtelou moves in as a game-ready option. And, put with fellow JUCO DT Michael Wyche and highly rated HS recruits Courtel Jenkins, Anthony Moten and Travonte Valentine, Miami now has 5 very good incoming players at a position of desperate need.
