Miami trending for four-star top target on 247Sports Crystal Ball
The Hurricanes are starting to trend heavy on the 247Sports Crystal Ball for one of their top targets.
With one recent predictions in their favor, Miami is beginning to trend on the 247Sports Crystal Ball for 2025 four-star linebacker Gavin Nix, one of their top defensive targets in the cycle. Adding Nix would give the Hurricanes two tip-top linebackers targets after Elijah Melendez committed.
Nix has offers from Alabama, Florida, Florida State, Texas, Michigan, Penn State, Tennessee, Auburn, North Carolina, Pittsburgh, South Carolina, Kentucky, West Virginia and Georgia Tech.
After playing his freshman season at Orlando (Fla.) Lake Highland, Nix transferred to IMG as a sophomore. He’s 6-1 and is listed anywhere from 215 to 226. Nix is already well built, and he plays with impressive power for such a young athlete. Nix lacks great height, but his length is impressive, his downhill burst stands out and his change of direction stands out on film.
Nix has the potential to be an impact run defender up the middle thanks to his physical tools and ability to make clean reads, which stands out for his age. Nix has potential as a pass rusher and he has plenty of experience in coverage.
