Miami football dipped into the transfer portal Sunday to add a familiar face to some around the Hurricanes football program.
Lou Cristobal, the nephew of head coach Mario Cristobal and a former Georgia State offensive lineman, announced Sunday afternoon that he will be heading to Miami for his 5th season in college football.
Cristobal is a stronger pass blocker than he is in run block, according to PFF. He graded out with a 79 in pass blocking at Georgia State last season. The 6-foot, 274 pound redshirt senior totaled 367 reps in 2022.
