The former blue-chip prospect still has eligibility remaining and possesses the athletic ability that once made him one of the more sought-after defensive backs in his recruiting class.<\/p>\n<p>Hussey participated in Miami&#8217;s spring practice and the spring game, but, per Jackson, he failed to crack the top-four rotation at his position.<\/p>\n<p>However, the path forward is far less certain than it appeared when he arrived at Florida State or Miami as a 3-star transfer prospect.
