Four-star defensive end Armondo Blount's recruitment took another dramatic turn Wednesday, when he decided to sign with Miami after all.
Blount (No. 28 in the 2024 ESPN 300) had originally committed to Mario Cristobal and the Hurricanes on Sept. 14, only to change course and pledge to Mike Norvell and Florida State on Oct. 22, reclassifying into the 2024 class in the process.
The 6-foot-4, 250-pound Blount, who was fourth overall in the 2025 cycle prior to reclassifying, had 58 tackles, 19 tackles for loss and 11 sacks in nine games for Miami Central High School (Florida) this season.
