Miami and West Virginia are no longer playing for just pride in the Russell Athletic Bowl on December 28th. The two schools are playing for the right to sign a recruit out of Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
Fort Lauderdale Aquinas WR Michael Harley says Miami-West Virginia @RussellAthBowl winner is where he’ll attend college, 247Sports reports

Talk about a bowl game taking on real meaning. I don't think we've ever seen a recruit ever leave his decision up to a postseason game to make the ultimate choice for him. Harley is a three-star receiver who is the No. 47 recruit in the state of Florida. He also considered Missouri, Kentucky and South Carolina among others before settling on his final two.
