Miami Football: Daylyn Upshaw Commits as First Wide Receiver in 2025 ClassMiami Football: Daylyn Upshaw Commits as First Wide Receiver in 2025 Class The Miami Hurricanes have secured their first wide receiver commitment for the 2025 class with the signing of Daylyn Upshaw. Upshaw, who stands at 6-foot-1, 175 pounds, received offers from several top programs, including Georgia, Florida, Florida State, Auburn, Texas, Tennessee, and Ole Miss. However, Miami emerged as the clear favorite after Upshaw made an official visit to the campus this summer. “He’s a versatile wide receiver prospect who put up big numbers as a junior against five-star Cam Coleman,” said 247Sports scouting director Andrew Ivins. “He can run deep and get the long ball, but he can also capitalize on his catch-and-run opportunities.” Upshaw’s physical attributes and versatility make him a valuable addition to Miami’s offense. He is expected to undergo a physical transformation in the coming years, further enhancing his potential. The Hurricanes now have 18 commitments for the 2025 class, showcasing their commitment to building a strong foundation for the future.

“He’s a versatile wide receiver prospect who put up big numbers as a junior against five-star Cam Coleman,” 247Sports scouting director Andrew Ivins said of Upshaw prior to his announcement. “He can run deep and get the long ball. What also stands out about his game is how he can capitalize on his catch-and-run opportunities, as he has above-average vision and avoids tackles on jump cuts. On the young side for the class, having just turned 17 and seen him at various camps and tournaments, I wouldn’t be surprised to see him undergo a major physical transformation over the next few years. Overall, a solid addition for Miami given what they want to do on offense. He’s the type of wideout who offers some versatility and can line up on the inside or outside.”
