Elite quarterback Jaden Rashada of Pittsburg (Calif.) High announced his commitment to Miami Sunday afternoon.

The 6-foot-4, 190 pounder chose the Hurricanes over Florida, Ole Miss, LSU, and Texas A&M.

Rashada previously spoke about Miami in an interview with On3 in May

“I love the opportunity there,” Rashada said. “Along with the relationship that I have with the staff. I believe they will run their conference these next few years.”

Rashada just came off of an official visit to Miami on June 21st.

Jaden Rashada Scouting Summary

“Thinner-framed passer with impressive arm talent that keeps his cool when facing pressure,” On3’s Director of Scouting Charles Power wrote. “Has the arm strength to drive the ball downfield and into tight windows. Possesses the functional movement skills to escape the pass rush. Three-level passer who has the ability to layer the football. Productive player last season throwing for 2,220 yards and 27 touchdowns to 5 interceptions. Can be inconsistent with his ball placement, but showed flashes of improvement in camp and 7-on-7 settings this spring. Should develop quicker processing with more reps in the same offense after playing in three different systems.”

“Played his freshman season at Liberty HS before transferring to IMG Academy for his sophomore season. Transferred back to California and played his junior season at Pittsburg HS. On the older end of the spectrum for quarterbacks in his class. Has the physical tools and arm talent to become the face of an elite-level power five program.”

Rashada ranks as the No. 42 player in the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that accounts for all four major recruiting sites. He also tabs in as the No.7 quarterback and the No. 4 player in the state of California.
