DeeJay Dallas leads the way for a talented group of running backs for 2019. The heart and soul of the Miami Hurricanes, “The Ambassador,” running back DeeJay Dallas is gearing up for his junior season in the orange-and-green. Because he’s such a fan favorite due to his passion for the program, mostly everyone is familiar with Dallas’ career thus far as a Hurricane. The Glynn Academy (Georgia) product was once a UGA commit, though we’re thankful he ultimately chose to come to UM. His freshman year in 2017, Mark Richt had Dallas seeing action at wide receiver, until an injury to Mark Walton forced DeeJay to make the switch to running back. Whether it was from the Wildcat formation, catching passes as a WR, Dallas absolutely made his presence felt his first season. Walton left to the NFL after the 2017 season, so that left Dallas now as the number two back behind Travis Homer heading into the next year. As a sophomore, DeeJay was a great compliment to Homer, and added another level to the Miami rushing attack.
