Miami Hurricanes Football Top Transfer Class of 2024
The Hurricanes had 15 transfers in this transfer class this year. Florida State is ranked first in the ACC transfer classes with Marvin Jones Jr., among others. Miami is all about getting back to business this season under Coach Mario Cristobal. This will be Cristobal’s third year with Miami and it has been hard the past few years in Miami. The Canes were 6-2 heading into November last season before sliding to a horrible 1-4 finish. Cristobal and the Hurricanes’ lack of effort is to blame.
Now with this upcoming season, the Canes are the second highest ranked transfer class in the conference. Miami is hoping to be the top ACC team this year and contend for a National Championship.
