Four-star tight end Brock Schott, hailing from Leo, Indiana, has committed to the University of Miami. Standing at 6-foot-3 and weighing 215 pounds, Schott is a dual-sport athlete, excelling in both football and basketball. Known for his versatility, Schott has made an impact as both a tight end and an edge player. During his high school career, he led his team with 32 tackles for loss and topped the state of Indiana with 19 sacks, helping his team secure the NE8 championship. His dominant performance earned him all-state honors twice.
Schott had a wide range of college options, receiving 30 offers, including 25 from Power Four schools. Among these were prominent programs like Ohio State, Florida State, Iowa, and Penn State. Despite the strong competition, Schott decided to commit to the Miami Hurricanes, further solidifying their 2025 recruiting class.
His commitment is a significant addition to the Miami program. Schott becomes the second tight end to pledge to the Hurricanes in the 2025 recruiting cycle. This bolsters Miami’s overall recruiting ranking, moving them up to 14th nationally and 3rd in the ACC. Schott’s decision strengthens Miami’s depth at tight end, a position where the Hurricanes need reinforcements.
Schott has the potential to make an early impact at Miami, given the team’s current roster situation. With five tight ends on the roster, including two seniors and three underclassmen, there is a need for fresh talent. Schott’s development and ability to learn Miami’s schemes could earn him playing time as early as his freshman year, possibly landing him a spot on the two or three-deep roster.
As a player, Schott brings athleticism and a high motor to the field. He shows excellent speed and aggression as a two-way player. On defense, he excels as an edge rusher with a quick first step and the ability to transition from speed to power. Offensively, he will need to refine his blocking skills, as he’s been used more as a flex tight end. However, his willingness to improve, coupled with his solid route-running skills, makes him a valuable asset. With continued development, Brock Schott has the potential to become a key player for the Miami Hurricanes.
