Miami football scored a pair of recruiting wins for the Class of 2026 as Mario Cristobal looks to build this program into an ACC powerhouse. The third season under the Hurricanes’ head coach was an encouraging one as he led the program to a 10-3 season. That being said, the year ended somewhat disappointingly as Miami had a prime opportunity to make it the College Football Playoff. Nevertheless, a late-season loss to Syracuse cost them that opportunity. Cristobal will look to take that next step in 2025, as he has in his first three years.

Bacon chose Mario Cristobal’s program over Georgia, Florida, and Ohio State, while Pickett committed over Florida and ACC foe Clemson.
