The Miami Hurricanes opened up spring practice by hitting the Greentree practice fields on Tuesday Morning. The first of 15 practice sessions over the course of the next month, Miami will look to use the time to figure out some position battles, and work hard on player development.
After the session, several players and coaches held court with the assembled media for interviews. The videos of these interviews can be seen below.
Head Coach Mark Richt
Offensive Coordinator and Running Backs Coach Thomas Brown
Quarterback Malik Rosier
Safety Jaquan Johnson
Linebacker Shaquille Quarterman
Offensive Lineman Tyler Gauthier

Also, 247sports has the Canes #5 in their too early spring top 25 for the 2018 season. But, there’s a sufficient amount of (deserved) shade in there as well.
We spent a lot of 2017 debating whether The U was truly back. There will probably be more of that until Miami can stop almost losing to bad teams on a regular basis. https://t.co/nfQREw64zx pic.twitter.com/pJ6nI9WKPn

And that’ll do it for today.
Plenty for you to watch, read, and enjoy.
A kind reminder, that it’s only 1 day of practice, with only a small portion being available for the media to view. So just R-E-L-A-X on the hot takezzzzzz and let the team grind, okay?
Okay.
