It didn't take Booker T. Washington's Anthony Hundley long to realize he wanted to be a Miami Hurricane.

The rising junior gave a verbal pledge to Manny Diaz and The New Miami on Friday just one day after landing an offer from the hometown school.

"Miami was always a option for me, Miami is my dream school," he told 247Sports in a message.

Hundley, who is ranked by 247Sports as the nation's No. 25 defensive tackle in the Class of 2020, also holds early tenders from LSU, Kentucky, Louisville and Syracuse. He caught the eye of InsideTheU last week during BTW's intra-squad scrimmage.

"Miami Palmetto's Leonard Taylor and Miami Southwest's Savion Collins have already been billed as the top two interior defensive linemen in Miami-Dade for the next cycle and for good reason. Hundley however might not be far behind them," we wrote. "He was able to create plenty of pressure during BTW's intrasquad on Tuesday and flashed a few pass rushing moves. LSU offered Hundley last week. It wouldn't be a surprise if the state's 'Big 3' eventually got involved."

Stephen Field, who handles the inner-city for the Hurricanes, will get credit for the commitment.

Hundley is listed at 6-3, 275 pounds. He is the seventh Miami-Dade underclassmen to commit to a Miami 2021 recruiting class that currently ranks No. 1 in the country according to the industry-generated 247Sports' Composite Team Rankings.

The group is headlined by Booker T. Washington Top247 defensive end Donell Harris, Hollywood Chaminade-Madonna Prep Top247 running back Thad Franklin, Miami Central Top247 offensive lineman Laurence Seymour and Collins. It also includes: North Miami Top247 linebacker Chamon Metayer, South Dade three-star linebacker Tyler Johnson, Miami Northwestern three-star wide receiver Romello Brinson and Miami Northwestern three-star wide receiver/tight end Kahlil Brantley.
