Houston wide receiver Sam Brown, Martinez and Ward potentially provide Miami with the best, QB, RB, and WR transfer trio nationally. All three can become impact players for Miami in 2024. Miami has added five offensive transfers to its 2024 roster and eight on defense.
Miami has balanced their 2024 recruiting and transfer classes by signing players who can make an impact immediately and recruits who will develop for the future. Freshman WRs Ny Carr and JoJo Trader are other players to watch for Miami who can make impacts in 2024. Miami has done an excellent job upgrading its 2024 roster talent.
