UM Hurricanes camp: backup offensive tackle George Brown Jr. hurt. Freshman steps up.

A quick update from University of Miami football practice No. 8, two days after the first fall scrimmage on Saturday night at Hard Rock Stadium:

u25aa UM coach Mark Richt said on WQAM this morning that backup offensive tackle George Brown Jr. sustained a knee injury in the scrimmage. Brown, listed as 6-7 and 310 pounds, is a redshirt junior who transferred to Miami from LSU in 2016, when he sat out per NCAA transfer rules. Last season Brown played in three games as a reserve against Bethune-Cookman, Notre Dame and Virginia. Otherwise he was on the scout team.
