The Miami Hurricanes continue to add to their offensive line of the future via the recruiting trail.<\/p>\n
Miami on Wednesday received an oral commitment from Tyler Ford, a three-star Class of 2027 offensive tackle prospect from Gainesville, Georgia.<\/p>\n
Ford is Miami\u2019s 10th overall commitment in the Class of 2027 and the third offensive lineman of the bunch, joining Fort Pierce John Carroll\u2019s Sean Tatum and Wellington Palm Beach Central\u2019s Zaquan Linton.<\/p>\n
Ford, listed at 6-5 and 325 pounds, is the No. 59 offensive tackle prospect and No. 661 overall prospect nationally regardless of position according to the 247Sports composite ranking.<\/p>\n
247Sports\u2019 scouting report describes him as a \u201cClassic downhill offensive tackle that has continued to reshape his body\u201d but notes that he \u201cshould be viewed as a young developmental lineman with multi-year starter upside at the Power Four level.\u201d<\/p>\n
