Miami Hurricanes fans love watching sophomore receiver/return specialist Jeff Thomas do his thing.
And the good news on Thursday is that UM coach Mark Richt said during a teleconference that Thomas has been practicing and “is doing great’’ in light of the left-knee injury he sustained last week against Florida State, when he was yanked down by his facemask.
But as the No. 16 Canes (5-1, 2-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) get ready to travel to Charlottesville, Virginia for a 7 p.m. kickoff (ESPN2) on Saturday against the Virginia Cavaliers (3-2, 1-1), Richt said that two other young Hurricanes might be doing some of the kickoff/punt returns to spell Thomas a bit.
