They say that college is the best time of your life; Well, Mohamed Toure is surely taking advantage of it.
After being in college football for seven years, the Miami Hurricanes linebacker, who is listed as a graduate student on the official Miami Athletics site, is considering returning to play in the 2026 season, which would mark his eighth in the sport.
Touré’s first season of college football came in 2019 with Rutgers, where he redshirted, winning a year later. He then lost his 2020, 2022 and 2024 seasons due to COVID-19 and two ACL injuries, making it three years later.

Add it all up and that’s four extra seasons of college football.
Touré’s Hurricanes fell short in the national championship last week as their comeback was unsuccessful against top-ranked Indiana, which completed a 16-0 season with its 27-21 victory.
Touré transferred to Miami ahead of the 2025 season and became a stalwart of their defense, leading the team with 84 tackles. Eleven of them came in the title game.

Teammate Carson Beck drew attention before the national championship when he openly admitted that he “graduated two years ago” and “had no class.”
Beck, who attended Georgia before transferring before last season, added that he is “working on other degrees now that I’ve gotten to Miami, but these programs take a little over a year to finish.”
“Obviously I won’t be enrolling again next semester. I’ll be done after this season,” Beck continued.

Barring unforeseen circumstances, the 2026 season will be Touré’s last, and if he plays again until the end of January, he will be 25 years old when his college playing days are over.
