Canes land IU center transfer Zach Carpenter

[Peter Ariz]

Miami picked up a huge addition to their 2024 roster on Monday night as Indiana center Zach Carpenter announced his intention to transfer to the Canes.

Carpenter is originally from Archbishop Moeller HS in Cincinnati and went to Michigan prior to Indiana. He started for the Hoosiers the last two seasons and was a priority target for Mario Cristobal and staff as it was a necessity to replace Matt Lee – who entered the NFL Draft.

Along with Carpenter’s commitment, veteran Canes lineman Jalen Rivers announced today that he is returning for his fifth season.

He held up ok against some of the big boys. A sack and two pressures against Michigan, a couple pressures against Ohio St, but overall that’s pretty good. He’s much better against the pass than in the run game, so he’ll have to improve there.

Let Mirabal refine some technique and he should be a-ok. Maybe not Matt Lee level, but more than good enough overall.

This is huge. Center is an extremely important position and under valued as we saw with the addition of Lee last season. I’ll take a BIG10 center every day. Glad to not have to be moving a guy out of place to fill the position.

Archbishop Moeller is a power up there. Good relationship to build.

A poly, midwestern redneck, and a southerner that’s what you want on an OL

Yeah he did a good job against OSU I went back and rewatched some of that when it looked like we were in for him

Really can’t believe how lucky we were with injuries this year on the OL but the communication was on point too
