The commitment train continues as the Miami Hurricanes land their second four-star recruit of the day, Tyson Bacon.

The Hurricanes stood alone as the best option for the talented defensive lineman. Bacon also visited Georgia and Florida for official visits. Those schools could not compare as the Hurricanes edged out the interest of the talented defensive lineman.

"Every time I come to Miami, I get that family feel. It's something you can't really avoid when you come to the University," Bacon told InsideTheU after his official visit. "I feel really great about Miami."

According to the industry-generated 247Sports Composite, Bacon ranks as a four-star prospect and the No. 38 defensive lineman in the 2026 class. This will be the 13th commitment for the Hurricanes, boosting their top-ten recruiting ranking.
