OL James Brockermeyer transfers to Miami

[Derrick Griffin]

Buddy there are like 40 threads where we’re all *****ing about the QB situation, can we keep it to one of those

No one stays on topic in any thread. Just add me to the pile.

 

[VustyVoles]

The amount of doom and gloom on this board is astounding

 

[Derrick Griffin]

So what? You guys don’t want actual news until we have the QB position settled? Should it not be reported until then?

I’ve become the mope. My apologies

I don't like the idea of rolling a freshman out there week 1 against ND. Bring in a proven guy and if Nickel is that good and beats him out then more power to him

When somebody better than him walks on campus, we can have that talk. Until then he’s the best we got.

 

[CanesDynasty]

Football isn't that complicated. You need a competent QB with a few difference makers in the talent department and in the leadership department... But no one is winning anything without an oline and dline.

 

[TheOriginalCane]

Now have him help convince Hoover to transfer and we're cooking with gas...

 

[TheOriginalCane]

It’s been more than 5 days….

Has he...you know...graduated?

Because if so, the Portal is still open.

And that applies to anyone, not just this guy.

Sorry D but all of this is for not until there’s a substantive qb on board.

Can’t get good WRs without a good QB. Can’t get a good QB without a good OL.

Now we go hard after our QB.

We have a bunch of baby-fans who are going to pout until we sign a QB.

No apologies. I feel the same way but DMoney still needs to give us the info for the sake of his site. Let’s not turn on him for bringing us the information. Our issue is the current state of the UM offense.

 

[TheOriginalCane]

The GOAT center.

 

[ColoradoCane]

Welcome to the U kid. Like this pickup!

Ya I hope that's the case bc i did not like what I saw 2nd half of the Iowa state game

 

[MgDuBzZ]

Big time pick up.

 

[Fzac75]

Related to the old KC baseball announcer who got shipped to minors due to drinking problem?

The resemblance is uncanny

 

[grover]

WELCOME!!! TO THIS

 

[F-MarioCristobal]

coming around to someone like Drones behind this OL. Run game would be unstoppable.

Talked to some VT fans and they really wouldn’t be surprised if this freshman has a good game tonight they might want to move to him. Tricky because Pry is on the hot seat

Welcome to the family!

The Canes completed their starting OL with the commitment of TCU C James Brockermeyer. The high-IQ, 6’3.5, 300-pounder has played 931 collegiate snaps on both offense and special teams.

Coach Mirabal hopes to hit on his third center transfer in a row after the successful tenures of Matt Lee and Zach Carpenter.



Brockermeyer initially signed with Alabama as ESPN’s #1-rated center in America. After receiving limited playing time, he transferred to TCU where he became the full-time starter and earned Honorable Mention All Big-12 honors.



Brockermeyer comes from a family of OL, as his brother played for Alabama and his father played 9 years in the NFL after starring for the Texas Longhorns.


The Canes beat out USC and Florida State for Brockermeyer’s commitment. CanesInSight was first to report Miami’s interest in Brockermeyer.
