Every group of linebackers that comes through the University of Miami from this point forward will be compared to three guys that walked onto campus and gave their all to this program from day one: Shaq Quarterman, Michael Pinckney, and Zach McCloud. Collectively, they have led this Hurricanes defense for the past three years and will be sticking around for one more shot to finish their career out successfully.
This past season was a special year for the defense in general who led the nation in multiple categories including tackles for loss and passing defense. Those accomplishments would have never been possible without a group of linebackers that went far beyond the Hurricanes Bermuda Triangle.
