MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. – Charleston Rambo isn’t one to get caught up in individual numbers.
After his 210-yard performance in Miami’s 33-30 win over Georgia Tech, the receiver made a point to note that all of the Hurricanes’ receivers have been delivering of late and that Saturday’s victory was a complete team effort.
But there was one accomplishment that made him smile just a bit: the fact that he has now officially joined some pretty elite company in the Miami record book.
Rambo, who hauled in seven catches against the Yellow Jackets, is just the fourth receiver in program history to total more than 200 yards in a single game and his effort on Saturday now ranks second in a single game behind just former Miami receiver Eddie Brown, who had 220 yards against Boston College in 1984.
The only other Miami receivers to top 200 yards in a single game? Wesley Carroll and Phillip Dorsett.
“Being in company with those players and in the record book, it means a lot,” Rambo said. “But I’ve got to stay humble, keep God first and keep getting better. I’ve got to go in next week, Sunday, Monday, practice, be better. I can be better. And I’m going to be better for the team and for myself.”
