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.

Now get me a proven QB and another starting WR and let's roll on offense

Get me a QB with an arm that can throw the ball from the 40 to the endzone. That would suffice...

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

Would you prefer him not to say anything about a Grad Transfer C in the portal?

Nickel will be fine if he gets enough time. This O line should give him that.

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

Honestly think this just doesn’t mean much at all until we get some information on a qb.

Exactly. It’s like having a sweet car but it has no engine.

Alabama washout and TCU retread. Do not want.

Also, I wouldn't know this kid if he walked in my house right now, and I know even less about how good he is, but I stayed in a Holiday Inn Express last night, and someone on CIS has to find a problem with this addition.
