Alabama leads the recruitment with a 20.2 percent chance to receive a commitment from Aguirre, Florida is second at 17.7 percent, Ohio State is at 15.1, and the Miami football program at 9.5. Aguirre has taken official visits to Alabama, Florida and Texas this month and will visit Ohio State this upcoming weekend.

According to CaneSport, Aguirre’s father played at Miami Columbus, which happens to be the alma mater of Mario Cristobal.
"Miami“Ever since I was a kid Miami has always been my favorite school…Just the swag and I’m originally from Miami, so the love will definitely always be there. My dad has a great relationship with all the coaches from highschool so that’s special to me.”"
Miami currently has seven players committed to its 2023 Class. Three-star linebacker Bobby Washington is the only defensive player committed to Miami for 2023. With official visits coming to end this coming weekend, Miami should begin to receive more commitments. Aguirre would be a huge addition to the 2023 Miami class.
