Kevin Estes landed an offer from Miami on Sunday night. He added Arizona and San Diego State offers on Monday.
It has been a crazy, whirlwind few weeks for the San Marcos, Calif., offensive tackle and many more offers could be on the way as well.

"(Miami) just offered a few minutes ago," Estes said Sunday night.
"It was a complete surprise. They added me on Facebook about two days ago and they didn't say anything to me. I just got a message asking for me to call them. They said to call immediately, so I called and they offered. I was completely surprised.
"I hadn't done much research on them. My mom is already looking them up. I know they've won a lot of games and I watched a lot of games early last year. I know a little bit about the program."
The 6-foot-6, 273-pound prospect who has excellent junior season tape now has landed offers from Arizona, Arizona State, Boise State, BYU, Colorado State, Duke, Nevada, Oregon State, San Diego State, San Jose State, Washington State and Wisconsin.
He said all those schools had been showing interest and most of them recently offered. More top programs are reaching out on social media and more offers could be close.
"All the schools that have now offered me were the schools I had known were interested in me," Estes said. "Now other schools are seeing I have the offers and watching my film and finding me.
"USC added me on Facebook. Cal wants to come meet me. Arizona is coming out to the school. Usually from Facebook adds that's where the offers are coming from."
Because things have happened so fast and more offers could be coming, Estes said he remains wide open in his recruitment.
The San Marcos standout just returned from a trip to Oregon. He was definitely impressed but is still waiting to land an offer from the Ducks.
"I'm pretty wide open right now," Estes said. "All these offers have flown in so I'm going to need some time to look at the schools before I start deciding which ones I'm really going to focus on.
"The facilities at Oregon are top-notch. They're all brand new so it's crazy nice up there. I really like the place. All the people are really good and nice. It was an amazing place."
