In this story:

Miami takes on Florida State this weekend and will play host to not only the Seminoles, but a massive crop of talented prospects from the 2025 class, 2026 class and beyond. The Hurricanes are expecting over 100 recruits in attendance of Saturday's game, so this could be Miami's biggest recruiting weekend of the year.

This week, Miami picked up a crystal ball prediction from On3's Steve Wiltfong for 2026 cornerback and son of Hurricane legend Clinton Portis, Camdin Portis. He's a 6-foot, 165 lb. athletic corner that has already shown ball hawking ability throughout high school.

After missing out on 5-star defensive tackle Elijah Griffin, who committed to Georgia last week after naming Miami in his final three choices, Miami shifts its focus to the other elite talents that the 2025 class has to offer, many of which will be in attendance for this weekend's game.

It was a mostly quiet week on the recruiting front for Miami baseball with the Canes not adding any major commitments, but maintaining their sixth ranked class.

Miami Women's basketball added a commitment this week from Danielle Osho from Dacula, Georgia. Osho, a 6-foot-2 small forward is ranked No. 3 in the state of Georgia and is the 14th ranked power forward in the nation.

Canes Men's hoops, like baseball, was mostly quiet on the recruiting trail this week as well, holding its Media Day on Monday.
