Miami Hurricanes Coach Profile: Jon Richt

When Mark Richt got the job as the Miami Hurricanes’ head coach, the choice for his QB coach was an easy one. To do that job, he brought in his son Jon Richt to help recruit and instruct the most important position on the field.

The younger Richt learned the finer points of QB play from his father over a lifetime, but he’s also put in the work to get to this position. After a nice HSFB career, Jon Richt played collegiately at Mars Hill college. You may remember the name of that school: that’s where Miami got FB Marquez Williams as a grad transfer before the 2016 season.
