In the days ahead of Miami’s ACC opener against North Carolina, Hurricanes coach Mark Richt was plenty coy about which one of his signal callers would start against the Tar Heels.
Both redshirt freshman N’Kosi Perry and redshirt senior Malik Rosier took reps with the first string offense when Richt knew reporters were watching practice. And even during pre-game warmups, it was Rosier who led quarterback drills, though Perry had played the bulk of the snaps against FIU a week earlier.
There will be no such mystery this week as the 17th-ranked Hurricanes prepare for their annual rivalry showdown with Florida State, Richt saying on Monday that it’s Perry who will start Saturday against the Seminoles.
