While the offense finds their groove early on in the season with a new quarterback, having 2024 running back Hunter Nichols Hunter Nichols 6'0" | RB Miami | 2024 OK returning is going to help whoever ends up in the quarterback position. Last season, Nichols finished with a little over 100 carries and nearly 800 yards and ten touchdowns. We anticipate his production to go up in a significant way. Jinks was Miami’s leading rusher last season but he also carried the ball over 200 times. We think Nichols will be in a position to be the team’s leading rusher with a higher workload this fall. He won’t be alone in the backfield but we really like his potential to take the next step as a player in the Miami offense.
