Miami Hurricanes land two commitments to keep beefing up defense in class
The Miami Hurricanes 2027 recruiting class continues to grow fresh of a jam-packed weekend of visits.
Four-star linebacker Noah Glover and three-star defensive lineman DeMarco Jenkins , two of the 15 reported official visitors in Coral Gables this weekend, became the latest to announce their commitment to the Hurricanes’ class, doing so on Sunday.
Glover, out of Haymarket (Virginia) Battlefield High, is rated as the No. 18 linebacker and No. 206 overall prospect in the Class of 2027, according to the 247Sports composite ranking.
Listed at 6-1 and 205 pounds, Glover is an Under Armour All-American and the second linebacker in the Hurricanes’ 2027 class, joining fellow four-star prospect A.J. Randle Jr. He chose Miami over Georgia and Notre Dame, among others.
Jenkins, from Pearland, Texas, is rated as the No. 51 defensive lineman in the Class of 2027 and the No. 439 overall recruit in the class, according to the 247Sports composite ranking. He holds offers from 27 schools, including LSU, SMU and Texas.
Jenkins, listed at 6-3 and 307 pounds, last season had 17 tackles for loss and seven sacks while totaling 48 tackles for a Pearland High team that went 11-1 and was ranked as the No. 68 overall team in Texas.
Miami’s class, which now has 17 commitments and was ranked No. 4 nationally by 247Sports prior to commitments from Jenkins and Glover, now has five defensive linemen and/or edge rushers in the class. Jenkins joins four-star lineman Ezekiel Ayangbile, four-star edge rusher Demarcus Deroche, three-star edge rusher Jyavon Dawson and three-star defensive lineman Josh Johnson.
