Three-star offensive tackle Demetrius Campbell became the second lineman to commit to the Miami football program in the 2025 class. Campbell is the eighth player committed to the 2025 Miami class. Campbell chose Miami after official visits with the Hurricanes, Central Florida and Rutgers.
Campbell is the seventh-ranked out of the eight 2025 Miami commits. Three-star interior OL Takaylen Muex is the only 2025 Miami commit ranked below Campbell. Campbell was a late bloomer who did not start playing football until 2022. Campbell is the 1,075th prospect, 81st OT and 142nd player in Florida in the 2025 class.
Miami has two commitments from the June 7 weekend of official visits. Three-star cornerback Timothy Merritt committed to Miami on June 9. Miami is projected to receive a commitment from three-star OT Jaden Wilkerson when he makes his commitment announcement on Wednesday.
John Garcia of Rivals called Campbell a mauler at a legitimate 6'6 300 pounds. Garcia likes the leverage and power that Campbell has at the point of contact. Campbell has the frame of a tackle, but more of an interior game presently per Garcia. Campbell could start his career as an IOL and eventually set at tackle.

Joining a program with a head coach who was part of two national championship OLs and the highly thought of Alex Mirabal as his position coach, Campbell has a high upside in his career. Campbell is the fourth 2025 Miami commit from Florida. Linebacker Elijah Melendez, running back Girard Pringle Jr., Merritt and Muex are also from Florida.
The recruitment for Campbell was consistent. Brian Dohn of 247Sports stated Miami emerged as the favorite to receive a commitment from Campbell from the moment they offered the Orlando Christian Prep prospect. Miami could face a transitional period in the next two seasons.
Next. Miami projected to get commitment from 3-star OT Jaden Wilkerson Wednesday. Miami projected to get commitment from 3-star OT Jaden Wilkerson Wednesday. dark
