Miami has landed their third commitment in as many days, securing 2026 defensive lineman Isaac Chukwurah.
Originally a Penn State commit, Chukwurah reopened his recruitment following the firing of James Franklin, and the Hurricanes made a move immediately — the first team to contact the Delaware native following the news.
The 6-foot-2, 260 pound lineman creates havoc on the inside, really stuffing the run game on a consistent basis.
A two-sport athlete in both basketball and football, the Delaware native moves well on the line for his size.
He pairs his motor with impressive physical traits, notably, Chukwurah has an 82.5 inch wingspan, with 35-inch arms that would rank him at the top of the 2026 class.
Chukwurah becomes Miami’s 28th commit in a class that could reach over 30 recruits, joining a defensive line room of Asharri Charles, Keshawn Stancil, DeAnthony Lafayette, Anthony Kennedy Jr., Tyson Bacon and Frederic Sainteus.
Expect this room to continue to shake up as we head towards signing day.
