Miami has been busy in March, and they put a bow on the month by landing a commitment from an elite local offensive tackle.

Fort Myers' Joel Ervin named the Hurricanes on Saturday evening, becoming the seventh Miami commitment of the 2026 cycle. He previously committed to Louisville on March 8, but decommitted a few weeks later.
Ervin took unofficial visits to Miami and Florida State before walking back his commitment with the Cardinals. Ervin posted a photo from the Hurricanes' practice facility on Saturday morning before announcing his commitment. He was slated to take official visits to Kentucky, Miami, Florida, and USC this summer, but says his recruitment is now shut down.
Ervin began his junior year unranked by most major recruiting services but debuted on The News-Press' Big 15 at No. 8. He joins Miami's class less than a year later as a 3-star and Top-100 tackle in the nation.
School: Fort Myers
Commitment: Miami
Height, Weight: 6-6, 280 pounds
247Sports Composite Grade: 3-Star, No. 100 player in Florida, No. 60 offensive tackle in the country.
What to Know: Ervin was named to the News-Press 2024 All-Area Offensive First Team as a junior after helping the Green Wave average more than 300 yards of offense per game on the way to their first district title since 2019. He named the Hurricanes over Louisville, Florida, USC, Kentucky, and FSU. He reports 23 total offers.
