Miami (FL) Hurricanes

The Miami Hurricanes dealt another blow to the SEC as they landed another former commit, Tyran Evans, after he decommitted from Tennessee.

Evans, 6-foot-3, 185 lbs from Cornelius, NC, is rated in 247Sports' composite rankings as the No. 81 wide receiver in the nation and had been committed to the Volunteers since early January. 

The Hurricanes liked his size, something they desperately lack in their receiver room. They have a ton of talented players, but the size and jump ball ability of some are not there, and Evans would be a perfect fit for the future Hurricanes offense.
