He also tells Hayes Fawcett of On3, he has LSU, Florida State, Florida, Georgia, and Oregon listed as well.

The 6-foot-2 Sarasota, Fla., native has been one of the best-touted recruits coming out of Florida. He is rated as the No. 28 overall prospect and No. 2 corner in the class of 2026, according to 247 Sports. He is also a two-way star for his high school. He recorded six touchdowns on only 10 catches offensively, finishing with 317 yards while accounting for 33 tackles and a pick-six defensively.

If he chooses the Hurricanes, he will be the fourth cornerback to be in the 2026 class.
