2026 4-star RB Javian Mallory announced his commitment to the University of Miami Saturday Night.
“I feel like I could be another great to come out of Miami,” said Mallory.
A six foot, 200 pound product from West Boca, Mallory has been creeping up boards as of late with his elite vision and balance. Just recently at the Under Armour Next camp in Miami, Mallory won RB MVP over elite competition such as 5-star Derrek Cooper. And despite only playing seven games last year, Mallory averaged over 10 yards a carry, consistently demonstrating a patience rarely seen in high school backs. Looking back to his full sophomore season, Mallory ran for nearly 1500 yards with 18 touchdowns and over 120 yards per game.

His film offers a lot to like. His cuts are sharp and decisive, waiting for the perfect gap to open and attacking. Even when the gap isn’t there, Mallory has the strength and power to force his way through the line of scrimmage with both brute force and a stiff arm move in his ****nal.
Mallory also offers a receiving threat out of the backfield. At the Under Armour Camp, the separation he got against opposing linebackers was ridiculous. He easily won every rep I watched with smooth cuts at the top of routes.
He becomes the first backfield commit for Miami’s 2026 class and if the “wall of Mirabal” continues, Mallory will have some great gaps to run through when he arrives on campus.
This comes after his unofficial visit to the university today for spring practice, another 2026 recruit to commit after his visit (Jaelen Waters, Ben Congdon). Mallory will officially visit again this summer June 20-22.
Mallory held nearly 50 offers from competing schools, namely rivals Florida and Notre Dame who showed high interest in the 4-star. He now joins the Hurricanes growing class of 2026 recruits, becoming the seventh commit alongside Jaelen Waters, Ben Congdon, Dereon Coleman, Jordan Campbell, and Camdin Portis.
