Recruiting analyst predicts key Miami commit will flip to SEC rival

Miami could be in danger of losing one of its top commits to the University of Florida.

CaneSport’s Gary Ferman went on On3’s InsideScoop this week and predicted that 4-star linebacker Malik Bryant will flip to the Gators.

“I’m going to say ‘flip’ on that one,” Ferman said. “I think that’s the one guy that Florida is going to go all-in on, because they can … I’m going to say he’s going to over-play his hand with Miami and possibly end up a Florida Gator.

“I could end up being wrong there and maybe he sticks, but he’s the one guy in the Miami class that I’ve got a circle around that’s got the radar up a little bit.”

Here’s video of Ferman’s comments:

Ferman’s prediction is a direct contradiction to a declaration that Bryant made in mid-November. After rumors started swirling about his interest in Florida, Bryant said his commitment was “1000% closed.”

Here’s that statement:

Bryant is the No. 77 overall player and the No. 5 linebacker in the country for the class of 2023, according to 247Sports Composite rankings. He’s Miami’s fourth highest-ranked commit so far in this cycle.

The Early Signing Period begins on Dec. 21.
