Miami secures 2027 safety Andre Hyppolite from Florida

The Miami Hurricanes bolstered their 2027 recruiting class by landing a commitment from four-star safety Andre Hyppolite. Hyppolite, rated as the No. 215 player nationally, is from South Florida and is the sixth recruit from the Miami-Dade, Broward, or Palm Beach counties. He was previously on Florida's radar, expressing admiration for the program, but ultimately chose Miami, which now holds the second-ranked class in the nation with this commitment. Hyppolite's decision is seen as a significant step in restoring Miami's reputation for developing strong defensive backs.
