The Miami Hurricanes continue to make waves in the recruiting world, flipping four-star DT Keshawn Stancil from Clemson.
A 6-foot-4, 280-pound North Carolina native, Stancil was largely off fans' radar following his commitment to Clemson earlier this summer.
He visited Miami during the first official visit weekend (5/30-6-1) with many believing that the Hurricanes would land his commitment right then and there, myself included.
However, Clemson made a late push and sealed the deal in late June following his visit.
But the UM staff kept working hard, not satisfied with their second place finish in his recruitment, and pounced on Stancil following the Tigers poor showing this season.
He’s the 3-tech lineman defensive coordinator Corey Hetherman absolutely loves, able to just wreck the game with his high motor. Stancil gets upfield well with raw power and huge upside as he hones in his technique.
So far this season Stancil has racked up 56 tackles and four sacks, with 15 of those tackles being TFL's --- violence with his effort on the line.
Stancil becomes Miami’s 25th commit in the 2026 class, joining a defensive line room of Asharri Charles, Anthony Kennedy Jr., Tyson Bacon and Frederic Sainteus.
The Hurricanes will look to continue to build their defensive line class as they push to flip five-star Oregon commit Tank Jones and Texas A&M commit Bryce Perry-Wright alongside four-star Alabama commit Nolan Wilson.
Like Stancil, other names previously thought of as “off the table” could be back on the cards for the 'Canes with more movement to come.
