Hurricanes QB Tyler Van Dyke starting against Virginia as D’Eriq King, Jake Garcia sidelined

MIAMI GARDENS — Tyler Van Dyke was the Miami Hurricanes’s starting quarterback for the second consecutive game, with usual starter D’Eriq King not available for UM’s ACC opener against Virginia on Thursday at Hard Rock Stadium.

Van Dyke started in Miami’s win over Central Connecticut State last Saturday in light of King being sidelined with a shoulder injury he sustained in the Hurricanes’ loss to Michigan State on Sept. 18.

True freshman quarterback Jake Garcia, who split playing time with Van Dyke against the Blue Devils, was sidelined for Thursday’s game with an undisclosed injury, according to a team spokesperson.
