State of the U continues to preview players for the upcoming 2017 college football season. Summer camp inches closer, and that itch for football grows with each day. Today we preview a player who promotes himself on social media as @56_nightmares. While Michael Pinckney’s been a nightmare for opponents since his days at Raines High School, his freshman season at Miami can only be described as a dream come true.
Pinckney, a Miami native before his family moved to Jacksonville, was a Hurricane supporter for much of his youth. In fact, he was a solid commit to Miami since the nineth or tenth grade.
