The Miami Hurricanes continue the hot streak of recruiting, but jump into the next class as they land a ball hawk in four-star safety Jaylyn Jones.

On3's Hayes Fawcett reported the news as Jones continues the trend of keeping talent home for the Hurricanes. The 5-foot-11, 175 lbs. Davie, Fla., native didn't waste any time with his commitment because he knew it was the right time.

"I felt like it was the right time to commit now because the relationship I have with the coaches now is incredible," Jones said.

Jones is a top 25 safety in the 2027 class, and entering his junior year, he could turn into something more. He joins cornerback Kenton Dopson and wide receiver Ah'Mari Stevens as the first commits of the 2027 class.
