Miami lands high-profile transfer duo: Mensah and Barkate commit to Hurricanes
Miami officially adds quarterback Darian Mensah and wide receiver Cooper Barkate from Duke, pairing a top-tier passer with a top-10 receiver to elevate the Hurricanes’ offense; Mensah has two years of eligibility (with the option to turn pro after next season) and Barkate has one, as UM expands its portal haul following an NIL-related settlement with Duke.
