MIAMI — Quarterback Jake Garcia — who enrolled at Miami two years ago with visions of challenging Tyler Van Dyke to succeed D’Eriq King as the Hurricanes' starting quarterback — has decided to enter the transfer portal, his father Randy told The Miami Herald on Tuesday.
Garcia ended up starting only one game at UM, and appearing in eight others, during two seasons with the Hurricanes.
He struggled with turnovers last season (four interceptions, four lost fumbles) and UM managed only four field goals (and a Garcia two-point conversion run) in his one start, a 14-12 overtime win at Virginia.
