Wide receiver Philip Dorsett was a three-star signee with the Miami football program in the class of 2011. Dorsett was an explosive but inconsistent player during his four years with the Hurricanes.

Philip Dorsett was given a scout grade of 79, ranked the 47th best wide receiver and 154th best player in the Southeast by ESPN when he signed with the Miami football program in 2011. Dorsett had excellent sophomore and senior seasons for Miami but struggled with injuries as a junior after being a backup as a freshman.
