The latest Rivals Industry Rankings will make you excited. The Hurricanes now have three five-star commitments in the 2027 class, with Donte Wright (No. 10), Nick Lennear (No. 17), and Jaiden Bryant (No. 25) all earning five-star status. Just showing how good the future of Miami will be and what Mario Cristobal is building in Coral Gables.
Leading the way is Donte Wright, who checks in at No. 10 overall. The 6-foot-2, 170-pound cornerback from Long Beach Polytechnic High School in California has all the tools coaches look for at the position. He’s long, physical at the line of scrimmage, and has the speed to stay with receivers all over the field. Wright is ranked as the No. 2 cornerback, the No. 10 overall player, and the No. 1 prospect in California according to the 247Sports Composite. Miami scored one of its biggest recruiting wins of the cycle when Wright flipped his commitment from Georgia, giving the Hurricanes a true lockdown corner to build around.
The second Hurricane to earn five-star status is Nick Lennear, who comes in at No. 17 overall. The 6-foot, 170-pound wide receiver from Miami Carol City High School has become one of the most electric playmakers in the 2027 class. Whether it’s stretching the field with his speed or making tough catches in traffic, Lennear has consistently shown why he’s one of the nation’s best. He’s ranked as the No. 2 wide receiver, the No. 17 overall prospect nationally, and the No. 2 player in Florida by the 247Sports Composite. Keeping a player of Lennear’s caliber home was a major victory for Miami, and he’s expected to be one of the faces of this recruiting class for years to come.
Rounding out Miami’s trio of five-stars is Jaiden Bryant, who lands at No. 25 overall. The 6-foot-3, 255-pound EDGE from Irmo High School has seen his stock continue to rise thanks to his explosiveness off the ball, and ability to disrupt plays in the backfield. Bryant is rated as the No. 3 defensive lineman, the No. 25 overall player nationally, and the No. 5 prospect in Florida by the 247Sports Composite. He originally committed to LSU before flipping to Miami, another recruiting win that showed the Hurricanes can go head-to-head with the biggest programs in the country for elite talent.
With three players now carrying five-star status in the Rivals Industry Rankings, Miami’s 2027 class continues to prove it’s among the nation’s elite. Landing blue-chip talent from California, South Florida, and across the country is never easy, but the Hurricanes have done exactly that. If this group stays together through signing day, it has every chance to finish as one of the best recruiting classes Miami has signed in the modern era.
