Miami football adds Kamren Kinchens as 2nd highest 2021 defensive commit
The Miami football program added four-star safety Kamren Kinchens as their second-highest-rated commit to their 2021 recruiting class when he announced his intentions on Saturday.
Four-star safety Kamren Kinchens became the fifth player from Miami Northwestern High School to commit to the 2021 recruiting class for the Miami football program when he announced his collegiate intentions on Saturday. Kinchens is the second-highest-rated defensive player commited to Miami for 2021.
Kinchens chose Miami over Auburn and Texas A&M. Auburn was the fiercest battle Miami had to receive the commitment from Kinchens according to multiple reports this week. Kinchens is the 299th ranked player nationally, the 20th ranked safety and 49th ranked player in Florida in the Class of 2021.
With a rating of .8980, Kinchens is the second-highest rated defensive player commited to Miami for 2021. Four-star defensive tackle Savion Collins who many recruiting analysts project to flip to Florida is currently the highest-rated defensive player commited to Miami for 2021 with a .9095 rating.
Kinchens joins his Miami Northwestern Bulls teammates, four-star wide receiver Romello Brinson, and three-star commits, tight end Khalil Brantley, linebacker Ja’Corey Hammett and cornerback Tim Burns Jr. as players commited to Miami for 2021. Brinson is the highest-ranked player currently commited to Miami for 2021.
Kinchens made his announcement via social media on Saturday. The
2021 Miami recruiting class is currently 12th nationally
after the commitment from Kinchens. The Hurricanes did not move up with Kinchens’ commitment, but they are now less than a point from Alabama for the 11th best recruiting class.
