Bama transfer Jamil Burroughs no longer with Miami

The late transfer to Miami mid-season last year reportedly will no longer be with Miami. Burroughs entered the transfer portal last June after an altercation with an Alabama staffer.

In three seasons with Alabama, Burroughs recorded 15 tackles, three tackles for loss, and two sacks.

Burroughs was not projected to compete for a starting job, with C.J Clark, Jared Harrison-Hunte, Marley Cook, Josh Horton, Ahmad Moten, Armondo Blount, and Justin Scott projected to battle for playing time at defensive tackle.

ACC Rookie of the Year Rueben Bain and Akheem Mesidor each have experience moving inside on passing downs.

Miami could pursue another DT transfer this spring. The spring transfer portal window is open from April 16th through the 30th.

Miami is in position to add transfers

Miami is looking to add to its roster and fill depth at key positions.

With the departure of Matt Lee, Zack Carpenter can be a legitimate replacement.
Carpenter originally signed with Michigan in the Class of 2019 and started 22 games at center for the Hooisers over the last two seasons.

In 2023, Carpenter allowed eight pressures and three sacks, according to Pro Football Focus. The fifth-year redshirt junior registered a 71.8 pass-blocking grade and a 61.0 run-blocking grade.
He has one year of eligibility left. UNC and Maryland also involved, but Carpenter is visiting Miami this weekend.

In his five seasons with the Wolfpack, Clark played in 42 games, tallying 72 tackles, including 7.5 for loss and four sacks. Clark visited Miami last weekend.
