The wide receiver began his collegiate journey at Southeastern Louisiana, where he recorded over 1,200 receiving yards over two seasons before deciding to transfer.
With the guidance sent to schools by the NCAA recently, fall athletes who decided to transfer will be allowed to immediately play in 2024-25 academic year without securing a waiver. Larvadain led Miami in received yards this season, averaging 16.2 yards per catch with six touchdowns.
