While Mario Cristobal and his Miami Hurricanes coaching staff hosted numerous visits this past weekend from many top recruits in the classes of 2026 and 2027, Miami has now offered a four-star wide receiver, Jaden Upshaw, who is related to a current Hurricane.



If you follow the Hurricanes closely, you may recognize the last name "Upshaw," as he is the younger cousin of freshman Miami Hurricanes WR Daylyn Upshaw.

Upshaw is rated as a four-star prospect, ranked as...

"Really I'll say the atmosphere is what I like best about Georgia," Upshaw said. "It was definitely one of the best games I've been to."

Next, Upshaw heads to Tallahassee for Florida State's game vs. Miami next Saturday.

It'll be his second time seeing Miami play this season. He visited Miami Gardens earlier this season for its win over Florida. And, the Hurricanes might be setting the pace in this recruitment.

He listed multiple schools that he feels like he's established strong relationships so far, and Miami was the first school he named...

"Miami, UGA, Alabama, TexasA&M, South Carolina, Michigan, Tennessee, Florida State, and USC," Upshaw said.

Upshaw (6-foot-2, 190 pounds) carries a four-star rating of 91. He's the No. 16 wide receiver and No. 103 overall in the 2027 class for 247Sports.
 
Upshaw just took a visit to Tallahassee to watch Florida State take on Miami. He had a good visit with the Seminoles coaching staff and loved the atmosphere inside Doak.

That said, from what we've learned, it was actually the Hurricanes that made the best impression. The play of freshman receiver Malachi Toney and the overall performance of the Miami offense are what greatly impressed the Peach State native.

According to sources, Miami is one of two teams standing out to Upshaw at this time. The other is Texas A&M.

This weekend, Upshaw will head to College Station to visit the Aggies. It'll be a great opportunity for them to stay even or potentially pull ahead of the Hurricanes with a good visit.

Upshaw loves Miami and just saw them in action for the second time this fall after first visiting Coral Gables to watch the Hurricanes defeat Florida. Now he visits Texas A&M. He's set to visit the second of his two top schools. We'll see if he's ready for a decision shortly after this trip.

Yes please, let’s continue to tap into that next level of perimeter talent. He’d be a great addition even though if he were to commit early we’d have to sweat this one out for sure. This kid is legit.

Four-star WR Jaden Upshaw is one of the top playmakers in the 2027 class out of South Georgia.

The No. 11-ranked WR in the Rivals300 from Leesburg (Ga.) Lee County made game-day visits across the SEC and also to Miami and USC.

Upshaw has already locked in visits back to a trio of these leading contenders.

Upshaw will return to Miami (January 17), to Texas A&M (January 24) and to USC (January 31) later this month. Georgia and Tennessee are two more programs right in the thick of the race for the blue-chipper.

He is bullish about the Hurricanes and their willingness to get their paymakers on the field early.

“Just the coaches there,” Upshaw said of the Miami staff, “and seeing how they are not afraid to play a freshman.”
 
I hope this young man comes to UM, but Leesburg, GA is about as far from Miami as you can get; not geographically of course, but culturally. Trust me when I tell you that if you visited some of these small Georgia towns, you would think you had gone back in time by 50 years.

Maybe having his cousin at UM helps make up for some of the cultural issues.
