The Hurricanes went into the 2027 and 2028 class prioritizing three elite five-star wideouts and walked away with a hat trick.

Nick Lennear, A’mir Sears and now Brysen Wright. Statement made.

Wright announced his commitment to the University of Miami this afternoon, simultaneously announcing his intention to reclassify into the 2027 class as Sears did in July.



A 6-foot-4, 210-pounder originally from St. Augustine before moving to Jacksonville, Fla., the Mandarin product is a contested catch specialist with a lengthy highlight reel of his circus grabs.

He’s an elite hands receiver who snatches passes out of the air and turns 50-50 throws into 80-20 balls. Whether it’s one-handed grabs on the sideline or high-point snags in the endzone, Wright does it all.

His body control is some of the best in recent classes, able to adjust to the flight of the ball in air and maintain awareness through the play for toe tap opportunities.

Keep in mind, Wright was already a reclass into the 28 class – originally part of the 2029 class – and is only 16 years old at the time of writing.



He will continue to develop on top of his college-ready physicality and projects to be a matchup nightmare at the next level. Wright can line up on the outside or in the slot, hunting weak spots in opposing defenses to gash downfield.

So far this season, he’s tallied 984 yards with 11 touchdowns at wide receiver, catching passes from UM 2028 QB commit Knox Annis. Wright has also featured as a hard-hitting safety and punt returner for his Mandarin side.

Often the public comparison for Wright is Jeremiah Smith — a big, physical X-receiver who punishes smaller DB’s. But another comparison comes in the form of DeAndre Hopkins, whose hands can make up for moments without true separation.

It came down to Texas, Florida and Miami for Wright, with the “U” capitalizing on its momentum coming off a national championship appearance and current No. 1 ranking.



The Hurricanes have added another gem onto a historic 2027 recruiting class for head coach Mario Cristobal, as Wright becomes the sixth five-star of the cycle.

Miami’s total haul for the class is now pushed to 21.

With less than a month until signing day, the staff continues to work behind the scenes building the next generation of Canes football. As it stands, Miami could roll out a 2027 receiving room of just its Florida-grown stars in Malachi Toney, Somourian Wingo, Lennear, Sears and Wright.

That’s a culture and certainly a program identity. Proof of Cristobal’s concept.

 

Wright said Miami is letting his brother come too, his brother is a WR at West Florida (I think)

 

 

Its extremely unlikely, unless something goes wrong.

Other than Mensah getting a low NFL draft grade I don't see him coming back. I would love for him to run it back but hard to pass on being drafted in the 1st round especially given how it worked oout of Dante Moore.

He is going to be a 1st round pick question is how high he goes. Kids want to compete at the highest level. If money is on his mind and a priority, well the sooner he starts the sooner he gets to the 2nd contract.

 

goosebumps

what about Dante Moore? He came back to college still made $5-10 million…and is still going to get 1st rd money in NFL. he got hurt- he’s not dead or career ended

Dante Moore is the poster child of not staying. His stock is dropping significantly.

 

if he has a good pro day - he will be first round pick. period. maybe not 1 overall. But sometimes its better to go 26 overall to a playoff team than what Cam Ward endures

 

Man yall hate Nickel.

Give that boy some superstars to throw to and he could be electric.

Hes nothing like a game manager. Pure gunslinger. And a dawg.

You still bring in a stud transfer and then have competition. Nickel can win the job. Would make a great cfb story to say Miami brought in a highly paid transfer QB but the QB on our roster earned the starting spot through a fair competition.

Waste of money that could’ve gone to someone on the LOS or a G**** linebacker that can cover. I trust the staff will evaluate whether they think anyone on the roster can be the guy

 

wanna start seeing more 5- star DT and OL.

Rather supplement with experienced transfers at those spots if possible

 

Luke Nickel is a WINNER and leader at every level so far. My concern was arm skrenth and knowing where to go with the ball. Watching him play, I'm no longer worried about his arm. If we have a slam dunk portal guy, which I think there are about 2 total, we take them. If not Nickel and the rest of the guys don't worry me at all.

agreed. you 100% hand a starting job to kamario or dante moore. probably sellers but he's been surging lately and if that keeps up he should go pro. the oregon state QB i have to imagine is a package deal with the OC but i question his physical tools against better comp. outside of that, i don't see a sure thing out there. JKS is intriguing- hyper-talented but very inconsistent. i'm not sure i'm that much more comfortable handing him the keys than letting the internal guys fight it out. certainly wouldn't be opposed to bringing in an experienced guy to compete, but otherwise let nickel, coleman, and abrams at it and see who comes out on top.

We are so loaded man

 

This is why you come to Miami. Massive program on a national stage. No need for these kids to go SEC anymore. Look at all the attention Miami gets nowadays it’s unreal. Main ESPn Twitter account posting this

 

 

You don’t want to wake a sleeping giant with remarks like this.
