A semi-under the radar prospect like 6'4" 340lbs 2015 Alabama NT Jauntavius Johnson would be a good pairing for Miami to consider adding with Quentez Johnson and Ryan Fines at the NT spot, 3 years from now they could be HUGE in rotating with Courtel Jenkins.
J. Johnson is a 2 time Alabama All state selection and a auburn lean at the moment (both he and his family) but Auburn is slow playing him big time (they want him to lose some weight) and the Auburn offer is as a Offensive Guard not a DT/NT (but have already received 3 OL 2015 commitments). Johnson's head coach is a HUGE BAMA guy an has been trying to keep Johnson a local secret (by not making a highlight video for him) in hopes that Bama could steal him but the secret is seeping out with offers from Miss St, Auburn (non-committable), and Louisville (the former DC from UGA knew about him for a while).
J. Johnson is a mammoth 2 gap space eater with limited range who uses his hands extremely well and plays with leverage at the point of attack even when being double teamed. At times he can take a play off or lack awareness but his instincts allow him to most times find the ball carrier even in traffic (which is important for a NT when collapsing the pocket with a bull rush). By his R-Fr year he will be a solid rotation type player and by his Soph year he could be a force in the middle of a 3-4 scheme if he stays motivated. Johnson has a tendency to play down or up to his competition; at the Rivals Camp Series in Birmingham, AL he had a very good showing.

If Johnson continues to develop throughout the summer camp evaluations along with losing a few pounds, I can see this young man's recruiting taking off. It's a good year for top end talent in the state of Alabama when Johnson is rated No. 14th best player. He's a big-bodied lineman who moves extremely well for his size. He will end up as a nose tackle or offensive guard when he arrives at the next level.
Miami should start recruiting this young man now and position themselves to land this young man's commitment, because Auburn most likely won't be an realistic option and Bama is going after higher rated prospects on their board. He fits exactly what UM's 3-4 scheme calls for an immovable NT that has long arms to knock down balls when he is in a passing lane.
Just to give you an idea of Jauntavius strength this is him as a FRESHMEN IN HIGH SCHOOL.

These are some highlights I found of other players with him in them watch #65 in white ( he does take plays off but that is more about conditioning since these are early season games)
