The Miami Hurricanes football team has made a significant addition to its 2027 offensive line class by securing the commitment of Tyler Ford, a three-star offensive lineman from Gainesville, Georgia. At 6 feet 5 inches and 325 pounds, Ford is recognized as the No. 59 offensive tackle and No. 661 player in his class. He chose Miami over offers from notable programs such as Auburn, Duke, and Florida. Ford's recent visit to Miami showcased his football IQ, which impressed the coaching staff. Miami's offensive line coach, Alex Mirabal, has been monitoring Ford since his junior season, appreciating his power, foot speed, and character. With Ford's commitment, Miami's 2027 class now includes two other offensive linemen: four-star prospect Sean Tatum and three-star prospect Zaquan Linton. The Hurricanes' recruiting class currently boasts 10 recruits and ranks fifth in the nation.
