N’Kosi Perry starts with the ones to begin Monday's practice

Sep 24, 2018

Although Mark Richt did not commit to a QB in the post-game interviews following UM's win over FIU, it sure looked like he was beginning to tip his hand on Monday morning.

After coming into the game in relief and leading Miami to their third win of the season against FIU on Saturday, redshirt freshman QB N'Kosi Perry began Monday's workouts on Greentree with the first team offense, the first time that's ever happened.

Malik Rosier worked in with the second string, followed by Cade Weldon with the threes, and Jarren Williams with the fours.

Miami has a short week this week and continues their season at home on Thursday night (8 pm) against the UNC Tar Heels.

Rosier is the ultimate backup.

5th year senior, tons of experience, knows the playbook, game manager, mobile, always smiling. This is perfect.

The first team in practice this morning. Looks like Richt’s made the call.

Malik with twos. Cade threes. Jarren fours

I'd like to see a healthy Jaquan Johnson Thursday night. I think Carter filled in nicely with the ones against FIU but JJ is an All American and his absence is always felt.

Who's to say the playbook hasn't been open all along, but Rosier's inability to make reads/audibles has made it look vanilla AF

I think it has been said for 2 years now that he just doesn't feel comfortable throwing certain routes so those have been taken out when he is in. For all the QBs it is also going to be how well they know the plays and if there are some they don't know those are not going to get called.

Let's hope Malik handles this with class, a la Hurts.

I am sure he will. He's been a class act here and he deserves our respect and admiration, notwithstanding his great limitations.

It's probably a patellar bone bruise. Those take longer to heal because of repetitive bone on bone contact. Rushing him back before he heals risks stress fracture, cartilage damage, osteoarthritis, etc.

Remember a bone bruise is really a fracture to one layer of bone tissue; the name is misleading.

Thanks. It’s kind of like turf toe which doesn’t sound bad but it’s extremly painful and slow to heal. I used to laugh when players sat out with turf toe until I actually had the injury and couldn’t walk normal for a month do to the pain in my big toe. No need to rush him back in my opinion. Hopefully he can get back right for FSU.

I hope Jarren is up to second string by the end of the season.

Nope and neither is Johnson. I would expect both to not play on Thursday. Johnson is a big loss but you can’t rush a hamstring issue. Hopefully he will be 100% for FSU

Uhhhhh, Perry has thrown more INTs than Rosier the 2 games He's been allowed to throw.

Perry threw it into double coverage a few times vs FIU, Harley bailed em' out.

Kid's talented no doubt, but He still has a lot to learn.

Dorsey career I think was 58%

My add on is that It’s also a lot of getting the ball to the correct playmakers in a manner that allows them to get YAC

Different era. 60% back then was extraordinary. Now it's what everyone expects to hit.

Not unless he becomes a disgruntled player. He hasn't had to deal with this type of gut punch on the field yet.
