Miami, Mario Cristobal make the final cut for another elite prospect the Canes need

Four-star interior offensive lineman Jordan Agbanoma of Grayson High School (Loganville, Ga.) has trimmed his recruitment to five schools: Texas A&M, Georgia, Nebraska, Miami and Florida.

4-star IOL Jordan Agbanoma includes Miami in final five schools

Agbanoma has become one of the more coveted 2027 linemen in the country. In the 2027 Rivals Industry Rankings, Agbanoma checks in as the No. 89 overall recruit, the No. 5 interior offensive lineman, and the No. 12 player in Georgia.

Agbanoma has four official visits set and is working to lock in a fifth, with trips scheduled for Texas A&M on May 28, Nebraska on June 5, Florida on June 11, Georgia on June 19, and Miami still to be determined.

Agbanoma is eyeing a decision in early July, so the summer official visits will likely shape his decision the most.

Texas A&M, Georgia and Nebraska are setting the pace as spring approaches, even with Miami and Florida still in the top five.

At Texas A&M, what Mike Elko is building is interesting. For Georgia, the Bulldogs' NFL development has been elite. And with Nebraska, the coaching staff and Matt Rhule's vision are what makes them tempting.

Miami has recruited OL at a high level during the Mario Cristobal era. With the recent success of Francis Mauigoa, three OL getting invited to the 2026 NFL Combine, and the recruitment of 5-star OT Jackson Cantwell, Miami has cemented itself at the top of the food chain when it comes to OL recruitment/development.

If you are Agbanoma, that is something that will have to be considered. Also, Miami could potentially be the last visit he takes before making a commitment decision. If Coral Gables is impressive — which it should be — then Agbanoma will have to seriously consider the Hurricanes at the end of his process, even if they are not in the top group of the final five right now.
