Redshirt sophomore N’Kosi Perry relieved redshirt freshman Jarren Williams after three interceptions in the first three drives during the Miami football team’s 42-35 loss to Virginia Tech two weeks ago. Perry nearly brought Miami back from a 28-0 deficit against the Hokies and led the Hurricanes to a 17-9 win over Virginia.
The announcement that Perry will start this week against Georgia Tech gives him another chance to impress the Miami coaches that he should be the permanent starting quarterback for the Hurricanes. Perry and Williams bring different intangibles and skills to the table.
