Miami Hurricanes start off ’24 in style with Antione Jackson commitment

The Miami Hurricanes have been on an absolute tear on the recruiting trail over the past couple of days, and their good fortune continued on Saturday. 2024 four-star safety Antione Jackson committed to the program,  flipping from the Georgia Bulldogs.

Jackson is the 13^th overall safety in the 2024 class, and the 31^st overall player in his class from the state of Florida per the 247Sports Composite Rankings.

Jackson had a relatively small offer sheet. However the offers he did have really stood out. In addition to Miami, he also had offers from the likes of Georgia and Alabama. Auburn was also in the mix as well.

What can he bring to the Miami Hurricanes?

Jackson is a versatile safety, and he would be able to help the Miami Hurricanes defense tremendously. He is a good cover safety, as well as a player who is not afraid to come up and make a big hit. And watching some of his highlights, it is evident that he has good tracking ability. It’s almost as if he plays the corner position. He is not afraid to cover a receiver, and that is a big part of his game.

As soon as the ball is snapped, he is able to use his quick instincts to back the football and make a play. This is very similar to play style of Robert Stafford, a 2023 commit. Much like Stafford, Jackson has that same type of cover corner mentality. If is exactly what the Miami Hurricanes want to do in the secondary, and that will benefit the program immensely. It gives them another type of shutdown corner that quarterbacks will be afraid to throw towards.

This is a massive commitment as Miami is able to land their first quarter stone commitment of the 2024 class. They have been looking for one, and they were able to get it in Jackson. Not only that, this helps Miami beef up their secondary room for the future, and continue the pipeline of productive safeties in the program.

The Hurricanes have been on a tear in terms of recruiting, and Saturday was no different. Mario Cristobal in the coaching staff were able to land their guy yet again.
