MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. – It’s our job at Rivals.com to forecast where the nation’s top prospects will end up going to college, but sometimes part of the information gathering process involves asking other prospects where they think their friends and teammates will sign. At Saturday’s Miami Dolphins High School Media Day, we asked some of the top players in South Florida where their friends and teammates will land. Some of the answers were pretty enlightening.
