Diaz: Blades medically cleared, two key juniors out this spring

Miami Hurricanes head coach Manny Diaz met with the media on Friday ahead of spring football practice beginning on Saturday.

One of the more newsworthy items that Diaz shared was the status of three important juniors on the roster.

Al Blades Jr. has been cleared but "working back toward fitness," Manny Diaz said. Nesta Silvera and Will Mallory are out for spring with shoulder injuries.
