Miami offered a 2029 (yes, a 2029) prospect. Not an incoming high school freshman in the class of 2027 or even an incoming eighth grader in the class of 2028. But an incoming seventh grader, currently 12-years-old, and the youngest prospect to receive an offer from the Hurricanes since head coach Mario Cristobal took over the program following the 2021 season.
