The Most Recent To Evade Hurricanes Is Jontavious Carter
Another Miami Hurricane is moving on with his career, which is encouraging for a programme that is recovering in this instance.
Jontavious Carter, a wide receiver, was expected to play as a redshirt freshman for UM this year. A few years ago, Carter, a 6-foot-2, 230-pound recruit out of Crisp County, Georgia, was rated as a three-star prospect. Carter arrived to Coral Gables with the intention of leaving his imprint.
Rather, he has been outperformed by six others, demonstrating that The U is once again a place with depth, talent, and competition. This autumn, he will search for a new place to call home.
Reversing course A few days ago, Danny Dillard made the decision to transfer because of the loaded depth chart and the rise of true freshmen back Carter and Gus Edward’s tales are comparable to Stacy’s.
Two of the Canes’ primary standouts among their seven scholarship receivers are Phillip Dorsett and Allen Hurns. Miami also welcomes back Malcolm Lewis, who was sidelined early in the previous campaign by a horrific ankle injury, and Rashawn Scott, who had a falling out with coaches in the latter part of the season but was cleared to play this autumn after resolving some personal concerns.
The Canes also welcome back D’Mauri Jones, who redshirted in 2012 but is fighting to play this fall. Herb Waters had some excellent performances in games late in the previous season.
Add Coley, and Miami becomes an overwhelming favourite. As a result, Carter feels left out and decides to make a fresh start somewhere rather than attempting to move up the depth chart.
It’s certainly not the case for people who view these exits negatively. Al Golden, the head coach, is demonstrating his ability to assemble a team with depth, replenish talent, and select the “right” players—those who recognise that there will be no easy wins and that a tough competition awaits them.
That’s more of a complement to those who show up every day and battle for playing time than it is to Carter or Dillard, especially the last two freshman classes, which were made up of players with some senior-sized cojones.
Raphael Kirby, Duke Johnson, and Deon Bush were the ones that really made an impression last year, and more of the same is expected this year.
