Gauthier started all 13 games for the Miami Hurricanes last season. He has a personal streak of 17 consecutive starts that dates to 2016. Gauthier is likely to be the leader of the offensive line with left tackle Tyree St. Louis in 2018.
He earned Honorable Mention All-ACC last season. With the group of Centers coming back in 2018 in the ACC it’s going to be tough to earn a spot on the All-Conference team.
Gauthier is attempting to become the second Miami Hurricanes center to earn the award. Brett Romberg was named the Rimington Award winner after the 2002 season.
