The Miami Hurricanes wrapped up training camp with their second scrimmage of the month on Saturday and have turned their attention to game preparations for their matchup against Alabama on Sept. 4, meaning roles a depth chart for the season opener will be clearer soon.
One position group that entered preseason practices with questions about what roles which players would have was the running backs after carries among the team’s tailback unit were mainly distributed between Cam’Ron Harris (11.4 carries per game) Donald Chaney Jr. (6.2) and Jaylan Knighton (5.8) last season.
All three returned for the 2021 season, with coach Manny Diaz and offensive coordinator Rhett Lashlee saying the team’s looking for a primary rusher with carries mainly being distributed between two tailbacks.
