CORAL GABLES, Fla. -- The University of Miami's three starting linebackers, all freshmen, do pretty much everything together.
“We live together,” Mike Pinckney said. “Only thing we don’t do is go to class together.”
To which Shaq Quarterman interjected, “That’s probably a good thing.”
Quarterman, Miami’s freshman starting Mike linebacker, fittingly is in the middle. If these are the Three Stooges, he’s Moe. Coach Mark Richt calls Quarterman a leader in training, a freshman who has earned the respect of the guys around him.
To one side is Pinckney, the team’s freshman starting Will linebacker, the comic relief.
