The University of Miami has successfully flipped two high-profile football recruits from their Florida rivals. Five-star defensive lineman Armondo Blount, originally committed to Miami before switching to Florida State University, has made another turn, deciding to sign with the Hurricanes. Blount, ranked No. 3 in his position and No. 228 overall for the class of 2024, had been expected to visit Tallahassee this weekend but will instead be visiting Miami, with plans to announce his final decision at 6pm. Additionally, four-star linebacker Adarius Hayes, ranked No. 177 in the 247Sports Composite and No. 78 in the ESPN 300, has also flipped his commitment from the University of Florida to Miami. Hayes had been committed to Florida since January before making the switch following an official visit to Miami last weekend. He has updated his highlight reel with Miami graphics to confirm his commitment to the Hurricanes.
