247 Sports has released their final update for the recruiting class of 2024. 

Miami Hurricanes' edge signee Booker Pickett Jr. saw his stock rise considerably. The 4-Star from Tampa Wharton was previously outside the top 247 but moved up to #143. He played exceptionally well in the Under Armour All-America Bowl and in the Polynesian Bowl this month. 

Another top riser for Miami was Chicago Kenwood Academy edge rusher Marquise Lightfoot. The final update bumped him from #60 to #34. He is just outside the 5-Star designation, reserved for the top 32 players in the class. 

Running back Jordan Lyle was previously outside the Top 247. Now, the 4-Star out of St. Thomas Aquinas finds himself ranked #236. 

Gaby Urrutia at Inside The U noted that the Hurricanes finish with 11 signees inside the Top 247 list. Defensive tackle Justin Scott headlines the group at #11 overall.  

Lightfoot and Pickett are both early enrollees. They've already begun spring semester classes at Miami. 

The Hurricanes will open up their spring football practice schedule on March 4th.
