BUBBA BOLDEN

Senior defensive tackle Jonathan Ford provided many around Miami football a sense of relief. With the 234th pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, the Green Bay Packers selected Ford, 6-foot-5, 338-pound native of Fort Lauderdale on Saturday, protecting a 48-year-old streak of Miami draft picks dating back to 1975. The Packers’ seventh-round draft choice marked the first and only Hurricane drafted this year. Recording each of his three career tackles in 2019 and four solo tackles last season, Ford brings near-boundless size to a Green Bay defense. Kenny Clark, a six-year veteran for the Packers, maintains the starting role at nose tackle after logging 48 combined tackles last season.

As the Hurricanes continue to struggle with health, another team captain is out for the season. Miami head coach Manny Diaz announced Monday afternoon that redshirt junior safety Bubba Bolden, who leads the Hurricanes with 42 tackles on the season, will miss the rest of the season due to a shoulder injury sustained in Miami’s loss at home against Virginia on Sept. 30. Prior to returning to Miami for his fifth season of college football, Bolden was considered a Day 2 pick in the National Football League (NFL) Draft. The Hurricanes’ safety room is loaded with young talent and it is likely that Diaz opts to start two freshmen, James Williams and Kamren Kinchens, at the position this week. 18 North Carolina State Wolfpack on Saturday, the Hurricanes (3-4, 1-2 ACC) will now go on the road to face No.

From the first whistle of the game to the last, the Miami Hurricanes never stood a chance against the Goliath-like Alabama Crimson Tide. Young had only thrown nine passes in his career prior to the game today after he spent last season backing up Mac Jones. Redshirt junior tight end Cameron Latu, who came into the game with very little game experience as well, torched Miami’s defense with two touchdowns. “I feel like we tackled like it was an opener and not like we’ve been practicing,” redshirt senior defensive end Zach McCloud said. Miami was without their defensive leader for most of the game after redshirt senior cornerback Bubba Bolden, redshirt senior cornerback, a team captain, was ejected from the game in the first quarter after he was called for targeting.

Top-ranked Alabama looks very much like a team capable of making another run at a national title.

Although the Hurricanes garnered eight wins for the first time since 2017, Miami football’s 2020 campaign did not end on a high note. “We’re going to be improved on defense this year and that is all going to be about the players,” Diaz said. I think our guys have a chip on their shoulder.”Yet, an expected defensive resurgence hasn’t remained the Hurricanes’ only top concern. “So, I think that’s the most thing: what the people think inside the locker room. Ever since I started playing college football, I’ve been named the head captain at Houston, here [at Miami].

College football coaches around the country are spending much of the offseason urging their players to get vaccinated against the coronavirus.

Bolden has 11 total tackles for Miami this season and has forced a fumble against Pitt in addition to the interception.

CORAL GABLES, Fla. - Bubba Bolden's season is over. The Hurricanes safety intercepted a pass against Florida State with 13 minutes left in the third quarter of Saturday's 27-10 win.

The 32-yard touchdown pass from Williams to KJ Osborn secured Miamis fourth win of the season, who are now 4-4. The late game call to put Williams in for starter NKosi Perry paid off for head coach Manny Diaz. We knew we were going to have to throw the football to have a chance to win the game.

But Miamis game winning drive would seal the win for the Canes, who got their first road win in 50 days.
