Miami tight end Cam McCormick’s college career will have a ninth season.

McCormick said Thursday that his petition for a ninth season of college football had been granted and he would be back with the Hurricanes from 2024. No college football player has ever had nine seasons of eligibility before; McCormick petitioned the ACC in September in the hopes of playing two seasons with the Hurricanes.

“Cam is an amazing young man of service, a great athlete, hard worker, and a natural-born leader,” Miami coach Mario Cristobal said in statement announcing McCormick's return. “His return is a testament to his character and the values he brings to our team. We are excited to have him back for the upcoming season.”

McCormick spent the first seven seasons of his career at Oregon before transferring to Miami ahead of the 2023 season. After redshirting in 2016 and playing in all of Oregon’s games in 2017, McCormick sustained a season-ending left ankle injury in the first game of the 2018 season. The injury needed multiple surgeries and caused him to miss the 2019 season and the pandemic-impacted 2020 season.


He was in the same freshman class as Justin Herbert

He's already got undergrad and grad degrees from Oregon so now he's retired in Florida.
