Miami wide receiver commit Malachi Toney (Fort Lauderdale, FL - American Heritage) has reclassified from the 2026 recruiting class to the 2025 class.
At 5’-10”/182, Malachi is rated 92, ranked the #25 wide receiver and the #217 overall prospect in the 2025 recruiting class, according to the 247Sports Composite.
Miami’s 2025 recruiting class now has 22 verbal commitments and ranks #11 in the nation and #1 in the ACC.
As a sophomore, Malachi caught 49 passes for 773 yards and eight touchdowns. So far this season, he has 25 receptions for 391 yards and 7 touchdowns in four games.
Here’s what Andrew Ivins, director of scouting at 247Sports, has to say about Malachi.
“Inside receiver with the skills to emerge as a high-volume target and a go-to playmaker in a spread attack. Elected to forgo his senior year of high school and reclassify after putting up big numbers as an underclassman for one of South Florida’s top talent-producing programs. Size has not been third-party verified, but is believed to be hovering right around 5-foot-10.5, 180 pounds. Has proven to be extremely efficient working out of a slot alignment as he uses his acceleration and agility to create separation on underneath routes. Advanced eye control and soft hands can lead to highlight-reel worthy grabs. Might not win every foot race, but is evasive after the catch and can avoid would-be tacklers with his quick feet. Will likely face a major adjustment period as he will initially be one of the youngest players on the college roster of his choice, but projects as a potential impact player on Saturdays if he can keep progressing and fine-tuning his craft. Ability to deliver in key moments throughout his football career despite not being the biggest or fastest shouldn’t be overlooked.”
Again, welcome to the U, Malachi!
