The Holiday dead period is now over, and the Miami Hurricanes have some big-name visitors on campus. USC transfers WR Zachariah Branch and S Zion Branch are in Miami today.

The 5'10, 175-pound Zachariah is one of the most dynamic players in the country, with a 10.33 100M, 21.01 200M, 24-0 long jump and 46-4.25 triple jump. He was an All-American punt returner as a freshman with two TDs, and amassed 47 receptions, 503 yards and a TD this season as a receiver.

His brother Zion is a 6'2, 210-pound safety who made 15 tackles with 3 passes deflected and a sack in 2024. He missed 2022 with an injury from fall camp. He was also injured late in 2023, which ended that season.

The brothers were the first college football players to sign an NIL deal with Jordan Brand. They have NFL royalty in their family, as their great uncle is Raiders legend Cliff Branch. In their free time, the brothers created the Branch Out Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting youth initiatives including homelessness, after-school programs, health and wellness as well as other charitable causes.

Relax. He just needs a real QB coach. Someone like Dawson, his current HC isn’t known for production from the QB spot.

USC was a mess this year, yet he still had 1,200 yards and 11tds in 4 games. With our oline and Running Game, he can shine here.

Zachariah = Darnell Mooney 2.0; Electric dynamic speedster who would fit perfect in this system & replace Restrepo.

Zion:
