The Miami Hurricanes have secured a significant victory on the recruiting trail with the commitment of elite quarterback Michael Hawkins. Hawkins, previously linked to powerhouse programs such as Alabama, Ohio State, LSU, and Tennessee, announced his decision to join Miami, marking a major coup for head coach Mario Cristobal and his staff.
Hawkins, a highly touted four-star recruit out of Allen High School in Texas, had been a priority target for several top programs across the nation. Known for his dual-threat abilities, Hawkins has consistently impressed with his arm strength, accuracy, and athleticism. Standing at 6’2″ and 195 pounds, he brings a dynamic presence to the field, capable of making plays both in the pocket and on the run.
The decision to flip his commitment to Miami reflects the growing momentum around the Hurricanes’ program under Cristobal’s leadership. Miami has emphasized a return to national prominence by bolstering its recruiting efforts and focusing on securing top-tier talent. Hawkins’ decision is a testament to the program’s vision and its ability to compete against college football’s elite for top recruits.
“I felt Miami was the best place for me to grow as a player and as a person,” Hawkins said in his announcement. “The coaches, the culture, and the opportunity to compete at the highest level stood out to me.
