While programs like Georgia and Oregon remain firmly in the mix, Miamis aggressive approach may have just changed the game.Cantwell, ranked as the No.

1 offensive tackle in the 2025 class by multiple outlets, has become one of the most coveted names in the country.

At 6-foot-8 and 300 pounds, his rare combination of power, size, and mobility has drawn comparisons to top NFL prospects.The Hurricanes, led by head coach Mario Cristobal, are banking on more than just promises of playing time.

Their NIL war chest appears loaded, especially after recently luring former Georgia quarterback Carson Beck to Coral Gables with a lucrative deal believed to be worth $4 million.

If Cantwell joins Beck, Miami could be investing $6 million in two cornerstone offensive players for 2025 alone.Meanwhile, Georgias pitch focuses more on NFL development and national title contention than money.

The Bulldogs recently secured a commitment from five-star quarterback Jared Curtis, a move that could influence Cantwellespecially given their reported conversations about teaming up in college.Oregon remains a wildcard.

While their NIL figures havent leaked, Cantwells recent visit during the Ducks spring game included time with alumni like Jackson Powers-Johnson and Josh Conerly Jr., both now in the NFL.Cantwell will make his final official visit to Georgia over Mothers Day weekend before announcing his decision on May 13.

If he follows the money, Miami could soon land a game-changing recruitand shake up the college football landscape.Related: Trump turns heads with announcement to lead college sports commissionRelated: Utah QB Cam Rising makes major announcement about his future.
