-


Hey once more, Canes followers. At the moment, we’re again for extra ‘crootin.

Yesterday, we took a take a look at the numbers and wishes for Miami within the 2026 recruiting class. When you missed that piece, be certain you click on the hyperlink beneath.

With visits of all types already underway, and lots of extra coming later this spring, let’s meet the present Miami Hurricanes 2026 commits.

A quick and bodily 6’2” 200lbs, Campbell is an All-American linebacker with tons of athleticism and limitless potential. He has moved round a bit already, taking part in seasons at Dade Christian the place he acquired varsity snaps as an eighth grader (gotta love non-public faculties!), then Hollywood (FL) Avant Garde Academy, Miami (FL) Norland (for observe), and Hialeah (FL) American HS earlier than transferring to Carol Metropolis.

At each cease, Campbell has been a standout participant, and he continues to develop yr after yr. In 11 video games as a junior at Carol Metropolis, Campbell stuffed the stat sheet: 70 tackles, 28 TFLs, 6 sacks, 15 QB hurries, 4 PBUs, and a pair of pressured fumbles. In brief, he was all over the place on protection, showcasing his spectacular instincts, energy, and vary.

Campbell has already accepted an invite to the 2026 Below Armour All-American sport, a testomony to his expertise and ability on the sphere.

For Miami, Campbell provides a prototype fashionable linebacker, one who can each affect the run together with his physicality, and play protection together with his athleticism. Some gamers are rotation gamers and a few are stars. To my eye, Campbell has the form of a star participant, and will see his profile proceed to rise as his class goes by way of their senior season.

As of at this time, Campbell is a prime 75 recruit on the 247sports Composite rankings. He might very effectively elevate into the highest 50 (or larger) as this cycle continues.

That is the type of participant that Miami ought to be recruiting and getting on the roster. Campbell is among the many finest gamers in South Florida in his class, and has the potential to be a foundational participant for the protection in his school profession.

Y’all know the drill by now: Recruiting Rule #1 — get a QB yearly. And, as was the case in 2025, Miami didn’t simply get a roster filler, they acquired a possible famous person with elite arm expertise in Coleman.

A lithely constructed participant, Coleman is 6’1” 170lbs. That’s positively an outlier bodily stature for a quarterback — he’s extra carefully constructed to somebody like former Alabama WR Devonta Smith — however don’t let that have you ever miss the unbelievable expertise Coleman possesses. He’s acquired a really dwell arm, among the many finest within the nation, and continues to enhance his efficiency at each alternative.

Like Campbell, Coleman has been taking part in varsity snaps since he was in eighth grade. Coleman threw for practically 1,200 yards with 12 TDs and 12 INTs as an eighth grader on varsity for Fort Meade (FL). After solely taking part in a handful of video games as a freshman at Plant (FL) Metropolis, Coleman’s efficiency took a serious step ahead together with his transfer to Orlando (FL) Jones.

As a sophomore, Coleman battled with senior Trever Jackson (an Elite 11 finalist) for the Jones QB job in 2023, and received the beginning job over Jackson. This was the primary trace that Coleman was a particular participant. He helped propel Jones to a 10-4 file and deep playoff run and started to cement himself as one of the gifted sign callers on this class. For the yr, Coleman went 116 of 183 passing (63.4% completions) for two,236 yards with 16 TD and 6 INT, and added 247 yards and 4 TD on the bottom.

Coleman and Jones took a step ahead in 2024. He went 203 of 279 passing (72.8% completions) for 3,412 yards with 28 TD and 4 INT, and added 455 yards and 4 TD on the bottom. Coleman led Jones to the State Championship sport, the place their undefeated season got here to an finish by the hands of Plantation (FL) American Heritage and 2025 Canes signee Malachi Toney.

I didn’t even point out the truth that Coleman has attended a number of Miami camps, throwing for coaches and displaying off his elite arm expertise. Or the truth that he’s among the many most dominant gamers on the 7v7 circuit, and has been for years.

I perceive there could also be issues about taking a participant of his stature at this place, however Coleman is an outlier in a great way. His arm expertise will play wherever, no matter his bodily dimension. That is an elite participant, and Miami ought to be very completely satisfied he’s dedicated to affix the Canes.

When you’re taking a look at this title and questioning one thing, the reply is sure. The son of former Miami star RB Clinton Portis, Camdin is a blue chip cornerback legacy who will observe his father’s footsteps to play for the Canes.

Standing 6’0” 165lbs, Portis has loads of dimension and size for his place. He, like many HSFB gamers, might stand to realize some weight and energy as he strikes as much as the school degree.

Portis stepped into a much bigger position for Myers Park as a sophomore. In that season, he posted 18 tackles, 10 PBU, 2 INT and a Compelled Fumble. Portis took a step ahead as a junior in 2023, and the stats present it. In 9 video games as a junior, Portis had 58 tackles, 6 TFLs, 2 sacks, 3 QB hurries, 2 PBUs, and 1 interception.

Whereas there are solely 3 gamers at the moment dedicated to Miami within the 2026 recruiting class, they’re all blue chip abilities that match what Mario Cristobal and firm are constructing.

I absolutely anticipate Miami to signal one other 22-25 individual HS class this cycle, and this group of early commits is working exhausting to get a few of their friends to be amongst that crew. With Spring Official Visits beginning in Might, there ought to be loads of motion for Miami, and different groups as effectively, on the path within the coming months.

So there you will have it. Campbell, Coleman, and Portis are your early commits. Time to maintain the recruiting going and construct a category that meets the requirements for expertise acquisition right here on the U.
