The Hurricanes saw immediate dividends when hosting numerous recruits on Saturday.
Miami picked up a commitment from 2026 three-star offensive lineman Joel Ervin on Saturday evening. Ervin, who decommitted from Louisville on Monday, announced his commitment on social media.
“I’m home,” Ervin wrote. “Shutting down my recruitment.”
Ervin, a Fort Myers native who plays for Fort Myers High, is 6-6 and over 300 pounds. The site’s composite ranking lists him as the No. 60 offensive tackle and No. 731 player in the class.
Ervin, who was on campus at UM on Saturday, also held offers from Auburn, Florida, USC and Texas, among others.
Ervin’s size pushed him toward the top of the Hurricanes’ recruiting board, a UM source told the Sun Sentinel. Miami also liked his quickness, strength and power. Ervin also boasts a large wingspan.
Florida also had a recent visit from the Fort Myers lineman, but he gave his pledge to the Hurricanes while in Coral Gables.
Ervin is the second offensive lineman in Miami’s 2026 class, joining four-star Ben Congdon.
