NFLDraftScout:
A preseason knee injury in 2003 limited McIntosh to reserve duty, where he produced 23 tackles (16 solos) and batted away two passes.
He started six times at strong-side linebacker and three times in the middle for the Hurricanes in 2004, earning All-Atlantic Coast Conference honors. He missed several late season games, including the Peach Bowl, with a shoulder injury, but still finished second on the team with a career-high 111 tackles (37 solos). McIntosh also registered four sacks, 13 stops for losses and eight quarterback pressures.
McIntosh was again named All-ACC honorable mention as a senior. He started the final 11 games at strong-side linebacker, leading the team with 89 tackles (50 solos). He posted 5.5 sacks and 10 stops behind the line of scrimmage while also causing one fumble and recovering two others.
In 46 games at Miami, McIntosh started 26 times. He recorded 266 tackles (127 solos) with 9.5 sacks for minus-69 yards, 32 stops for losses of 124 yards and nine pressures. He had two fumble recoveries, three forced fumbles and seven pass deflections.
.....
Durability issues might concern some, as he has dealt with knee and shoulder problems in recent years.
......
And I found this very interesting:
Recorded 200 of his 266 career tackles, all of his 9.5 sacks and 23 of his 32 stops behind the line of scrimmage in his last two seasons.
