Miami football prospect 3-star LB Sebastian Sagar committing Monday

Three-star linebacker Sebastian Sagar who the Miami football program is recruiting as a defensive end is announcing his commitment on Monday.

Sebastian Sagar who the Miami football program is recruiting as a defensive end is announcing his commitment on Monday around 8 PM ET according to Andrew Ivins of Inside the U. The three-star outside linebacker is expected to choose Georgia Tech over Miami, Boston College, Syracuse and West Virginia.

All four of the crystal balls currently project Sagar to commit to the Yellow Jackets. That includes Ivins who recorded his crystal ball for Sagar to Georgia Tech. Ivins reported on Monday morning that Miami doesn’t have enough room for Sagar in their 2021 recruiting class. Four-star DE Jabari Ismael commited to Miami on Friday.

The Hurricanes are also expected to receive a commitment from three-star Valdosta, Georgia DE Thomas Davis when he commits on his August 24 birthday. Miami wanted Sagar to visit before any mutual commitment was made between him and Miami. With the recruiting lockdown that was not going to happen soon.

Sagar is not very active on his twitter account, but tweeted on Saturday “Big news coming on Monday.” Miami is expected to continue to recruit Sagar and watch how his 2020 season unfolds with a move to middle LB. Miami currently has three LBs commited for 2020. Sagar is a versatile player that fits in the modern defenses.

At 6’4, 215 pounds, analysts like the build Sagar has to play outside LB or defensive end. Sagar transferred from Erasmus Hall in Brooklyn, New York to Grayson High School in Loganville, Georgia east of Atlanta. Sagar will have a chance to compete against better competition in 2020 than he has throughout his high school career.

With the additions to the 2021 Miami recruiting class over the last few months and other prospects committing to other programs the Hurricanes class is solidifying. Miami currently has 18 commits and the 12th ranked recruiting class in the country. The Hurricanes can sign 25 players in each recruiting cycle.
