CORAL GABLES, Fla. — The Hurricanes will stick with their more experienced starter heading into their first Atlantic Coast Conference game.
Despite benching him against Middle Tennessee State on Sept. 24, Mario Cristobal said Monday that Tyler Van Dyke will be Miami’s starting quarterback this Saturday against North Carolina.
“We are honest about the fact that Tyler has played great football here for a long time, and you don’t turn on your quarterback because we had a bad day as a program,” Cristobal said during a Monday morning interview with WQAM. “You make sure you do things and install things and work on things that the quarterback and supporting cast feels comfortable with and at the same time you recognize and acknowledge Jake [Garcia] did a great job and has a super bright future here at Miami.”
