Rumph was a quiet but productive player during his career at the University of Miami which culminated with a national championship in his senior year.
Rumph compiled 117 tackles (117 solo), 2 forced fumbles, and 6 interceptions (returning one for a touchdown) during his time at Miami.
[2] He was originally a cornerback, but the 49ers switched him to safety due to a combination of his strong tackling ability and poor man-to-man coverage skills.
[4] Following that, he served as head coach of the American Heritage High School's varsity football team in Plantation, Florida until 2015.
Prior to his departure from AHHS, Rumph had substituted a former Miami Dolphins player and coach Jeff Dellenbach in 2013.
