All eyes were on the quarterbacks Saturday at Traz Powell Stadium, but it wasn’t always the signal-callers drawing the attention of the few thousand in attendance for the University of Miami’s first open spring scrimmage.

Although redshirt freshman quarterback Jarren Williams looked extremely promising in front of a crowd that had barely seen him before, and returning part-time starter N’Kosi Perry for the most part delivered, it was players on the rise such as sophomore running back Cam’Ron Harris, sophomore receiver Mark Pope, freshman receiver Jeremiah Payton and sophomore tight end Will Mallory who drew double takes.
