Miami needed to wait a few days before securing another blue-chip commitment, but the Hurricanes’ hot streak continued Saturday.

Five-star defensive lineman Jayden Wayne committed to the Hurricanes on Friday afternoon, choosing Miami over offers from Alabama, Georgia, LSU, Oregon and dozens of other college programs. He announced his decision on CBS Sports.

“It’s been a long process,” Wayne said on the broadcast. “I’m just excited to be here today with my family. I’m grateful.”

Wayne is the second five-star prospect to pick UM in the last week, following offensive lineman Francis Mauigoa on Monday.
