Miami Hurricanes freshman safety Zaquan Patterson has announced that he plans to enter the transfer portal, he told On3.

The 6-foot-1, 195-pound player has three years of eligibility left at his next destination.

Coming out of high school at Chaminade-Madonna Prep, Zaquan was ranked as a four-star prospect, and ranked as the No. 63 player nationwide.

Zaquan played in every game, finishing with 19 tackles and three pass breakups. We will wish the best for the former four-star recruit to wherever he lands at.

Really sucks, this is happening every year all our good recruiting classes are gone in two years. Why spend all this money on recruits.

We probably paid a high NIL for him and the results weren’t as good as the product. NIL has forced players to produce ASAP.Best wishes to him

Yeah that is what ive posted before. Why get excited over recruits when they leave after one season maybe 2?

Some highly rated kids too:

Riley Williams
Zequan Patterson
Chris Johnson
Robby Washington
Frankie Tinilau
Josh Horton
Marcellus Pulliam
Jayden Wayne

He could've grown. He didn't play great but was a freshman.

Let’s just say he was late or missing meetings among things

You can't say that...when I hinted about that problem in the past, all the Zaquan White Knights showed up to talk about how "injured" he was.

Oh well, the truth eventually comes out, and the hardheads always learn the hard way.

Wanted him to stay on the roster but landing Poyser and him being the goods so far eases the loss for me. We’ll grab comparable production/value out the portal
