Miami got a big recruiting win over rival Florida State and Auburn when four-star safety Zaquan Patterson committed to the Hurricanes.
He is the 22nd commitment and fourth top-100 recruit in Miami’s 2024 class, joining five-star receiver Joshisa Trader, four-star edge rusher Marquise Lightfoot and four-star running back Kevin Riley.What does this mean for Miami?
Rival Florida State was thought to be the leader down the stretch before Patterson’s announcement Saturday. Chalk this up as a surprising and important win for Mario Cristobal and the Hurricanes, who had been finalists for other top-100 prospects over the past couple of months but hadn’t been able to close the deal and land a commitment.
Of course, this recruitment still feels far from over. Patterson didn’t take any official visits in June, but he did make it up to Tallahassee several times this spring in addition to unofficial visits to Michigan, Auburn, Ohio State and Miami. He said in the spring he’d likely take official visits during the season when his mother could go with him.
