On Tuesday morning, as most of their teammates trudged off the practice field and headed into the cool comfort of the locker room, members of the Miami Hurricanes offensive line stayed behind.
After an ugly performance against rival Florida State and a lackluster practice Tuesday that left veteran center Tyler Gauthier fuming, Miami’s linemen were put to work — again — once practice was finished, their coach Stacy Searels directing them through drill after drill in the steamy sunshine.
Joining them in their post-practice work was Hurricanes running back DeeJay Dallas, a sophomore who — like Gauthier — has emerged as one of Miami’s vocal leaders through the first half of the season.
