Miami (FL) football<\/a> is gaining steam on the college football recruiting<\/a> trail. The Hurricanes have landed four prospects in June. And they beat out Florida and Penn State for the latest four-star addition.<\/p>\n

Edge rusher Asharri Charles is off to Coral Gables. The 2026 talent announced his decision Sunday afternoon. Recruiting insider Hayes Fawcett of On3 revealed the Gators and Nittany Lions were in the final mix<\/a> for the Venice, Florida talent. Florida State and Missouri were two more schools Charles turned down for the \u2018Canes.<\/p>\n

\u201cListen.. Listen.. I Love Miami,\u201d Charles told Fawcett after committing.<\/p>\n

The 6-foot-3, 235-pound pass rusher becomes the third trench move in a span of less than two weeks for Miami. Head coach Mario Cristobal<\/a> and his staff landed Tyson Bacon and Canon Pickett<\/a> on June 11.<\/p>\n

Five-star offensive tackle Jackson Cantwell chose Miami<\/a> to boost its ’26 class. Cantwell committed on May 13. The \u2018Canes grabbed one other recruiting win over Florida during the spring. Four-star cornerback Jaelan Waters flipped to Miami<\/a>. \u201cSeatbelt\u201d Waters was a longtime Gators pledge before pivoting on Feb. 15.<\/p>\n

Miami racked up late 2024 recruiting wins too. Including landing four-star CB Camdin Portis \u2014 whose father Clinton played on Miami’s last national title winning team of the 2001 season.<\/p>\n

The Hurricanes hold 15 total verbal commits for the ’26 cycle. Charles adds new intrigue to South Beach. Andrew Ivins of 247Sports delivered this evaluation of the incoming defender<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cDensely-built edge defender that has displayed the ability to win with both speed and power while racking up 24.5 sacks the past two seasons for one of the Sunshine State\u2019s top talent-producing programs,\u201d Ivins wrote.<\/p>\n

He adds that Charles attacks with \u201cwhatever it takes\u201d energy and comes with violent hands. The Venice talent looks like a potential tone setter for Miami’s trench future.<\/p>\n

The \u2018Canes are aiming to improve on defense now that Corey Hetherman is the new defensive coordinator. Miami fell to 10th in scoring defense in the Atlantic Coast Conference.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Miami (FL) football is gaining steam on the college football recruiting trail.
