Manny Diaz Says Young Wide Receivers Are Ready To Contribute More On Offense

As spring practice is now underway for the Hurricanes, one of the biggest questions on offense is how the wide receivers will perform after a disappointing 2020 season as a unit. Mike Harley was the leading receiver with 799 receiving yards, but we didn’t see enough from Mark Pope and Dee Wiggins in their junior seasons.

I’ve never seen our WR’s this bad at Miami. Can’t catch, definitely can’t produce. Start the young guys week 1 next year

Even with Pope and Wiggins returning for 2021, Canes fans have been quite vocal when it comes to the younger wide receivers getting more playing time, and even becoming starters.
