Miami linebacker Mohamed Toure is further delaying his potential professional future to return for an eighth year of college football for the Hurricanes in 2026, according to multiple media reports.
This past season was Toure's first at Miami after he spent his first six years at Rutgers after signing with the Scarlet Knights in the 2019 recruiting class. He led the Hurricanes in tackles (84), adding three tackles for loss, two sacks and six pass breakups to help lead the team all the way to the national championship, which Miami lost 27-21 to Indiana.
Toure is eligible for an eighth season because he redshirted in 2019, got a COVID redshirt extended to all players in 2020 and missed the entire 2022 and 2024 seasons with torn ACLs. In the five seasons Toure has played, he's appeared in 53 games and recorded 251 tackles, 25.5 TFLs, 15.5 sacks, two interceptions and three forced fumbles.
With Miami losing a number of key pieces at all levels of last year's defense, including likely top-five pick Rueben Bain Jr. at defensive end and Wesley Bissainthe at linebacker, Toure will likely play a very important role for the Hurricanes in 2026.
