Cornerback A’mir Sears, out of Pembroke Pines, Florida, is one of the most coveted players in the 2028 recruiting class. Rivals Industry Rankings list him as a five-star recruit, the No. 1 cornerback and the No. 4 player in the nation.

Last season for West Broward High School, he recorded 61 tackles, one tackle for loss, one sack, three interceptions and 11 pass deflections. He was also an effective wide receiver with 42 receptions for 942 yards and 11 touchdowns.

The cornerback has garnered attention from a handful of top schools, receiving offers from the Miami Hurricanes, Auburn Tigers, Ohio State Buckeyes, Florida State Seminoles, LSU Tigers and Florida Gators.

However, only one team can land him. Rivals’ national recruiting analyst Sam Spiegelman made an expert prediction that Sears would land with an ACC team, choosing the Hurricanes to come out on top.

Miami, coming off a national championship loss to the Indiana Hoosiers, has yet to land a commitment in the 2028 recruiting class. However, Mario Cristobal and his staff continue to trend in the right direction for Sears.

The cornerback’s six unofficial visits with Miami are the most he’s taken with any team. His most recent came on March 5. Ohio State and Auburn are tied for the second-most, each having just one with Sears.

There’s a chance he could hit campus much earlier than expected as well. Rivals’ vice president of recruiting, Steve Wiltfong, previously reported that Sears is “likely” to reclassify to the 2027 cycle.

Many high school recruits commit to schools the summer before their senior year. If Sears does reclassify, his decision could be just months away.
