With the Miami Hurricanes introducing a brand new offense for the second consecutive season, leadership may be hard to come by. However, D’Eriq King has been embracing his role on the practice field and seems ‘up to the task’ when it comes to motivating teammates and impressing coaches.
Miami often looked tired and unmotivated on offense in 2019, with most of their problems reportedly relating to off-field issues. These issues mostly stemmed from the quarterback position, with confidence and focus being areas that plagued the corps most.
King hit the ground running, putting in additional conditioning work during the pre-spring camp program, and reportedly staying after practice to build chemistry with his receivers and new teammates.
