TOP of the Boards: 2028

November 4, 2026 -

Miami is putting the finishing touches on their 2027 recruiting class after all evaluations. Many are expecting the class to be another top ten haul of young talent.

With that said, the Canes’ staff is beginning to prioritize their 2028 recruiting targets. Miami is projecting 24-26 new recruits in 2028.

At this time, here are the current top prospects we project on Miami’s recruiting boards.

Quarterback: (1-2)

Knox Annis (COMMITTED)

CJ Cypher (COMMITTED - projected re-class from 2029 class)

Running Back: (1-2)

Xander Edwards

Acely Brown

Kevin Hartsfield

Wide Receiver: (2-3)

Brysen Wright (potential re-class to 2027)

Jaylen Addai

Dennis Tua'one

BOTTOM LINE:

It's not likely all these prospects will sign with Miami in 14 months. But the probability of the class’ core coming from the above board is good this far out. New targets will also emerged before pen meets paper in December, 2027.

GO CANES!
