2026 4-star cornerback Camdin Portis trims list to five schools

Charlotte (N.C.) Myers Park four-star junior cornerback Camdin Portis has narrowed his list to five schools, he tells On3.

Portis, the son of former Miami Hurricanes and NFL running back Clinton Portis, will consider Ohio State, Tennessee, Miami, Penn State and Auburn.

This weekend, he is set to return to Miami with his parents for the Hurricanes’ rivalry game against Florida State.

Portis broke down the state of his recruitment with CaneSport earlier this week.

The 6-foot-0, 165-pound Portis is the nation’s No. 292 overall prospect in the 2026 cycle according to the On3 Industry Ranking — a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is also the No. 23 cornerback and No. 16 recruit from North Carolina in the class.

Myers Park head coach Chris James told Lettermen Row earlier this month that he believes Portis has the ability to play at the next level:

“So Camden is very versatile. So for us, he actually doesn’t even play corner. He is a nickel for us. I had a conversation with him in the office the other day. We had a little butt in the heads at practice and I sat him down, and I kind of just talked about what playing nickel would do for his career. Obviously it’s going to make him more versatile. I think he does probably eventually move to the corner position when he gets to college. But being a nickel for us now, He’s able to see the game a lot differently. Playing nickel is difficult. That’s one of the hardest positions to play in football. He’s close to the box now.

“So we’re asking him to make tackles like a linebacker, which he didn’t have to do as a corner last year. We’re asking him to do drops, he’s a curl flat dropper, or a hook curl dropper. So his maturation process is kind of ongoing. I think one of the things that has been good for him is that we hold you accountable. I don’t care if you’re a 50-offer kid or a no-offer kid. I’m going to hold you accountable. I’m going to teach you the things to do and do it the right way. Obviously, his upside is the one that’s going to be through the roof, especially with his pedigree of his father.”
