In a stunning development, 5-star defensive tackle Justus Terry has de-committed from USC and announced his commitment to the University of Miami. The elite prospect, who was heavily pursued by Boston College, UNC, and Duke, decided to take his talents to South Beach, giving the Hurricanes a major recruiting victory.
Terry, regarded as one of the top defensive linemen in the nation, cited Miami’s strong football tradition and the coaching staff’s vision as key factors in his decision. The 6’5″, 310-pound powerhouse is expected to make an immediate impact on the Hurricanes’ defense, further strengthening their recruiting class.
“After careful thought and prayer, I’ve decided to de-commit from USC and commit to the University of Miami,” Terry said in a social media post. “I believe this is the best place for me to grow as a player and as a person, and I’m excited to join the Miami family.”
Terry’s commitment comes as a huge win for Miami head coach Mario Cristobal, who has been aggressively rebuilding the Hurricanes into a national powerhouse. Miami beat out strong pushes from Boston College, UNC, and Duke, who were all vying for Terry’s talents.
With Terry now set to join Miami, the Hurricanes’ defensive front just got a lot more intimidating as they continue to climb the ranks in the ACC. Fans and analysts alike are already buzzing about the potential impact Terry will have when he suits up for the Canes.
