Tom Loy, a national recruiting analyst for 247Sports, stated earlier this week that he would not be surprised if 2026 Miami signee Dereon Coleman won a national championship with the Hurricanes. Loy made the statement on the CBS Sports Miami National Early National Signing Period preview.

Coleman, out of Orlando, Jones, is a four-star prospect in the 247Sports composite rankings who is 283rd overall, the 19th QB and 38th player in Florida in the 2026 class. Coleman is extremely experienced as a starter for Jones since he was a sophomore.

In 42 career games, Coleman has completed 71.
