Tampa Armwood four-star running back Girard Pringle has committed to Miami, he told On3’s Hayes Fawcett on Saturday.

He chose the in-state Hurricanes over Alabama and Georgia. He also held offers from Florida, Auburn, Oklahoma, Tennessee and others.

“There is nothing like Miami to me. I just love everything about it. They are No. 1,” Pringle told CaneSport on his visit to Coral Gables this weekend.

Pringle is the No. 246 overall prospect and No. 17 RB in the 2025 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He’s also the No. 38 player in Florida.

On3 ranks Pringle higher than other recruiting services. He checks in as the No. 93 recruit, No. 6 RB and No. 11 player in Florida in the updated 2025 On300.

It’s still early in the 2025 cycle and Miami now has a quintet of pledges in its current recruiting class. Pringle is the fourth four-star to join the fold.

He headlines alongside Kissimmee (Fla.) Osceola four-star linebacker Elijah Melendez — the No. 155 prospect and the No. 18 LB in the On3 Industry Ranking. He committed to the Hurricanes on Dec. 16.

“I really like the program, and I know I’m going to come in early, play, and get developed,” Melendez told CaneSport ahead of his pledge. “I just know I’m going to have a good time and be taken care of there.” 

Alpharetta (Ga.) Milton four-star quarterback Luke Nickel was a riser in the updated 2025 On300 and is now is a top-25 signal-caller in the Industry Rankings. On3 ranks him as the No. 152 recruit, overall.

Boynton Beach (Fla.) Palm Beach Central four-star wide receiver Waden Charles and Quincy (Fla.) Gadsden County three-star offensive tackle Lamar Williams round out the class, which now checks in at No. 16 in the nation.
