It feels like just yesterday when former Miami Hurricanes running back Travis Homer put the ‘Canes on the board with a touchdown in the 2017 Orange Bowl.
2017 was Homer’s best season statistically in his three-year college career under ex-head coach Mark Richt. The West Palm Beach, Fla., native totaled 1185 yards and nine touchdowns that season as a sophomore.
And yet in the blink of an eye, the 2019 NFL Draft had rolled around for Homer after Miami had ended 2018 in a skid. He and the program had lost to Wisconsin for the second straight year in a bowl game, except it was the Pinstripe Bowl where frustration reigned.
