The Miami football program is lagging in defensive commitments for the 2025 class, with only linebacker Elijah Melendez and cornerback Timothy Merritt committed. In contrast, five offensive players have already committed.
Cornerback Chris Ewald and safety Amari Wallace, both highly sought after, visited Miami this weekend. Projections favor Miami for their commitments, with Ewald at 87.5% and Wallace at 95%. Ewald plans to visit Florida before his June 27 announcement, while Wallace is expected to decide before the season, also considering Louisville.
Other prospects like Andrew Purcell, Ezekiel Marcelin, Derry Norris, Gavin Nix, and Randy Adirika are also trending towards Miami. The summer could be busy with potential commitments, boosting Miami’s current rankings of 47th by 247Sports and 19th by On3. Coach Mario Cristobal’s previous classes have required patience but have yielded consecutive top-10 rankings. A strong 2024 season might secure another top-10 class【11†source】.
