Former Oregon Duck tight end announced via Twitter that he will transfer to Miami and play for his one-time coach Mario Cristobal and the Hurricanes.
McCormick has one more season of eligibility and there are definitely worse places to be than South Bench for the Bend, Ore. native.
It makes sense that McCormick would go to Miami since Cristobal was his coach for most of the six seasons he spent in Eugene. The 6-foot-5, 260-pound tight end has battled leg injuries throughout his career, but he seemingly has put that behind him.
In 2022, McCormick caught 10 passes with three of those going for touchdowns.
According to David Lake of 247Sports, Miami’s offense will be more balanced with McCormick in the fold.
The best offenses are well-rounded and can win in different ways and when facing different scenarios. Offenses must be able to generate explosive plays and mash in the red-zone and short yardage situations (see Georgia).
Decisions made! 🙌🏽 Back with the fam! #gocanes pic.twitter.com/hoYVt1a7At
