Miami makes top 10 for 4-star WR Bubba Brown
His top 10 includes Miami, Florida, Florida State, Georgia, Texas, Texas A&M, Tennessee, Alabama, South Carolina and Memphis.
Brown is ranked No. 173 nationally, No. 25 among wide receivers and No. 17 in Florida in the 2028 Rivals300. The Rivals Industry Ranking has him at No. 144 overall and No. 23 at his position.
Brown has developed a strong relationship with Gators coach Jon Sumrall, offensive coordinator Buster Faulkner and receivers coach Marcus Davis. Florida currently holds a 97.7% projection in the Rivals Recruiting Prediction Machine.
Brown is also a talented basketball player who averaged 13.6 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 1.3 steals per game during his sophomore season at Lowndes High School in Valdosta, Georgia. Brown transferred back to Florida State University School this summer after spending the 2025 season at Lowndes.
During his sophomore football season, he caught 28 passes for 518 yards and five touchdowns while adding 156 rushing yards and four scores on the ground. In his junior season so far, Brown has recorded 40 receptions for 654 yards and six touchdowns.
The Hurricanes currently have two commitments in their 2028 class: quarterback Knox Annis from Jacksonville's Mandarin High School and offensive lineman Kweli Fielder from Carrollton, Georgia.
Mario Cristobal and his staff have had success recruiting elite receivers in the 2027 cycle. Miami recently secured a commitment from five-star receiver Brysen Wright, who reclassified from 2028 to 2027. Wright joins a group of future Hurricanes receivers that includes Nick Lennear and Eli Woodard, along with five-star athlete A'mir Sears.
