13 Days to Miami Hurricanes Football: Top Canes to Wear #13

Gino Torretta is the only way to lead off the #13’s for the ‘Canes. Gino won the 1992 Heisman Trophy, played in more showcase games than humanly possible during his time at Miami, and won two national titles- one as a starter in 1991. Torretta, the 6’2 220lbs QB from California, finished 26-1 as a starter. His older brother Geoff was also a QB at Miami, and attended the Heisman ceremony with ‘86 award winner Vinny Testaverde as a guest, and again with Gino. Gino’s father passed away in 1988, just after enrolling at The U (thanks to the New York Times which has some amazing Hurricanes coverage from the glory days).
