The Miami Hurricanes added much needed size and experience to their WR room with the commitment of former Liberty and LSU standout CJ Daniels. The 6’2, 205-pound Atlanta native has compiled 148 catches for 2,434 yards (16.4 YPC) and 21 touchdown catches over his five-year college career.



Daniels exploded in 2023 at Liberty, putting up 1,097 yards and 10 TDs on an outstanding 19.4 yards per catch. He transferred to LSU, where he made 42 catches for 480 yards while battling a heel injury.

“He’s a great leader,” LSU coach Brian Kelly said. “And he’s been a glue guy for us in terms of consistency every single day playing through a more significant injury than maybe people realize. He’s had a pre-existing condition, a heel injury that is almost a dislocation, that I don’t know how he does it.”

“He practices, and we’re careful with his practice during the week to get him to Saturdays. And then on Saturdays, he’s just so consistent. Down the field blocking, he’s one of our best, if not our best, blocker. He’s precise with his route-running. He’s got strong hands at the point of attack.”







Isaiah Horton’s decision to enter the Portal created a huge need for a big-bodied, reliable receiver, which matches Daniels’s profile. He is a physical runner with 734 yards after contact, and he is also tough at the catch point (67% contested-catch percentage). His experience (2,257 career snaps) and winning background (46 career wins) will help a room with talented youngsters like JoJo Trader and Ny Carr.

Daniels chose Miami over Auburn and Ole Miss.

Welcome to the U. When he hit the portal, LSU fans were bummed out he left. So that says a lot to me.

Maybe he is like me and saw enough from Emory to believe that we can win games with him at QB. It will be our defense that needs to improve if we are going to have a successful season.
And yeah, maybe the money is nice also.

Lmao the guy committed while mateer was in Oklahoma visiting but now cis finest will apply “common sense” to come to the conclusion he was blatantly lied to by Mario, didn’t wanna just wait a day to see if he was telling the truth, and will now decommit within 24 hours. Brilliant stuff.

Yeah, that's what I was trying to figure out also. Just doesn't make sense.

oh ****, dawg i thought you were joking, didn't realize you had this queued up :(

To think Poff beat out Emory for #2 and what we saw from Poff was, meh :(

Not sure Poff was the # 2. The one time the Cam came out with a more than like 4 minutes left in the game Emory was the guy who came in to run the actual offense. Poff only came in when it was under 5 minutes and we were basically running out the clock. Some of that was likely to make sure Emory played less than 4 games so he could RS but seems odd the # 2 wouldn't have been the first guy to come in when we pulled Cam with like a quarter to go against Ball State.
