There were plays that looked promising and seemed to prove Manny Diaz’s point that the Miami Hurricanes have made progress through three weeks of drills.
Running backs DeeJay Dallas and Cam Harris, for instance, both showed their ability to break tackles and find open holes. Quarterback Jarren Williams, who appeared in just one game last season, was poised and confident as he led a pair of touchdown drives. Linebacker Mike Pinckney showed he can still deliver bone-crushing hits and DJ Ivey, who is pushing for a spot in the secondary, had an interception — which, he promptly pitched to Pinckney in an effort to get more yards.
