The Hurricanes landed commitments from two up-and-coming Georgia prospects who are not only teammates but also cousins.

Four-star 2028 offensive lineman Kweli Fielder and top 2029 quarterback CJ Cypher committed to the Hurricanes on Wednesday evening.

Fielder is listed as the No. 3 interior offensive lineman and No. 59 player in the 2028 class, according to 247Sports’ composite rankings. Cypher is not rated by the site, but he holds more than 30 college offers. He also holds offers from Alabama, Georgia, Florida and Ohio State, among others.

Both standout players play for Carrollton High in Georgia.

Fielder, who is listed at 6-4 and 310 pounds, is a Navy All-American and was named the Most Outstanding Offensive Lineman at the Navy National Combine. He chose UM over offers from Florida, Georgia, Ohio State and Notre Dame, among others. The Miami staff believes he can be a versatile lineman who can play multiple positions.

Fielder is the second member of the Hurricanes’ 2028 class, joining quarterback Knox Annis.

Cypher is the first member of the Hurricanes’ 2029 class. Cypher was a MaxPreps second-team Freshman All-American after leading Carrollton to the state title game. He racked up 2,280 yards with 26 touchdowns and four interceptions. He had a 71.6 completion percentage.
