DT Jarquez Carter commits to Miami

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.

There’s your DT @Calinative #panican

Dline was the least of the worries cause it was still deepest available in portal. But it made no sense for you to be giving credit for potential adds that hadn’t happened yet. This is a fine addition to replace Simpson.

The SDE option is the critical one on defensive side. Luckily there are still at least 3 very good options there and one decent one in the UTenn guy. He seems like a great athlete but the size would be the concern he seems like more of a WDE type. Wilson and even Gregory from OKst seem the best

I mean he played in 7 games as a true Fr DL including Texas. This isn’t some depth piece . He’ll play.

Not saying much, we have nobody beyond our top 3.

1 tackle in 7 games.

18 year old playing 7 games and 50 + snaps as a true Fr at OSU at a grown man position. Not sure what you’d expect. On top of that that they didn’t want him leaving . This is a nice rotational pickup.

With clear potential to be a starter

Brewu is nothing special. This is a much better pickup.

Its not exactly a bad DT depth chart:

Moten/Scott
Blount/Carter
Jones/Stancil
Newton/Nagle/Bacon

You're post states he is not a depth piece. I'm not sure 50 snaps suggests otherwise.

Anything can happen, but expecting him to be more than a depth piece right now is a reach.

Got you. So outside of the top 3 you have a combined 1 tackle and 50 career snaps from 1 guy. You're right.

Top 3 is very good. Beyond, it's all unknown with no experience.

I just want to say they burnt his redshirt over 50 snaps. Seems kinda dumb
