University of Miami football coach Mark Richt told reporters during his weekly news conference on Tuesday that fifth-year senior quarterback Malik Rosier and true freshman quarterback N’Kosi Perry are “both battling’’ in the competition to see who starts Saturday night at Georgia Tech in Atlanta.
On Wednesday, though Rosier began the 15 minutes of media viewing as the first quarterback during handoffs and ball security drills, Perry was the one who took nearly all the snaps with the receivers during throwing drills.
Rosier followed.
In the initial drills, Perry, redshirt freshman Cade Weldon and true freshman Jarren Williams followed Rosier.
