Second time's the charm. After finishing runner-up in his high school recruitment, the Miami Hurricanes secured the commitment of Jarquez Carter out of the transfer portal.
Carter, a 6-foot-2, 290-pound defensive lineman, signed with Ohio State last year as a four-star prospect out of Newberry, Florida.
During his freshman season with the Buckeyes, Carter appeared in seven games and registered one tackle. He played 51 snaps in total. He has three years of eligibility remaining. He chose the Canes over Texas A&M.
Carter joins former teammate DT Mykah Newton, who signed with the Hurricanes last year. Donta Simpson, the other defensive tackle in Miami's 2025 class, has since transferred to Missouri.
Carter was a two-sport athlete at Newberry (basketball) and brings initial quickness, strength and motor to the position.
