In a surprising declaration during an appearance on the Joe Rose Show on WQAM Monday morning, Miami Hurricanes offensive coordinator Rhett Lashlee revealed the decision for quarterback D’Eriq King to redshirt in 2019 came from the coaching staff at Houston. King transferred from Houston to Miami in January.
The process of King sitting out the 2019 season after playing in the first four games for Houston was one of a multitude of topics that Lashlee discussed with Rose and co-host Zach Krantz on Wednesday morning. Among the other topics was the talent Miami has on offense and the timeline of King’s transfer.
