Tampa Bay (Fla.) Tech blue-chip offensive lineman and Miami legacy recruit <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/canon-pickett-176928/">Canon Pickett</a> has committed to Mario Cristobal and the Hurricanes.



The 6-foot-5, 320-pound Pickett was back in Coral Gables over the weekend and has taken countless visits to campus. His father Booker Pickett Sr. played for The U and Canon will join his older brother who heads into his sophomore season this fall.



“I’m very excited,” Pickett said. “I’ve been waiting.”



Pickett chose to play at Miami over Clemson and Florida among many others. He had 50-plus scholarship opportunities.



“I’ve always liked Miami,” Pickett said. “They’ve been recruiting me since I was a freshman. They have some of the best assistant coaches. They have Coach (Alex) Mirabal and Coach Cristobal are some of the best offensive line coaches in the game.



“My brother goes there. You can’t beat family.”



“They have a strong academic program, Ill thrive in that and I feel like its the best spot for me overall.”
