Redshirt sophomore quarterback N’Kosi Perry relieved an ineffective injured Jarren Williams after three interceptions on the first three drives against Virginia Tech. Perry nearly led the Miami football team to an epic comeback against the Hokies from a 28-0 deficit and helped the Hurricanes defeat Virginia 17-9 last week.
In speaking with reporters earlier this week, Perry stated he was working on his touch and trajectory of his throws with Miami offensive coordinator Dan Enos. Perry was known for his arm strength and athleticism when he signed with the Hurricanes in February 2017. He redshirted as a true freshman that fall.
