During preseason camp, Hurricanes coach Mark Richt and quarterbacks coach Jon Richt heaped praise on Miami’s young reserve quarterbacks, noting that in recent months, they’d made progress and were showing the kind of maturity the Hurricanes needed from them on and off the field.
But one of those quarterbacks – redshirt freshman N’Kosi Perry – had a misstep as the Hurricanes announced Saturday morning that Perry would not travel to Arlington, Texas, for the eighth-ranked Hurricanes’ season opener on Sunday night (7:30, ABC) against LSU at AT&T Stadium. According to a statement issued by the school, Perry – a four-star prospect out of Ocala’s Vanguard High, violated an undisclosed team rule.
