One of the suspended players was quarterback Jacory Harris
and a QB controversy was stirring in South Florida but Golden ended the drama
on Wedensday. Harris will start when
the Hurricanes play No. 15 Ohio State on Sept. 17.
While no big surprise, the timing was odd as Golden had said
the day prior that a competition between Harris and Stephen Morris for the
first-string job would continue through at least the weekend.
“We’ll allow those guys to compete here Thursday, Friday,
Saturday, then figure it out,” Golden said Tuesday.
On Wednesday, that plan was scrapped.
The decision was announced by email shortly after noon.
Golden did not reveal why his timetable for choosing a quarterback changed so
abruptly, and university officials said players are not available for comment
until Friday.
Morris was the starter in Miami’s 32-24 loss at Maryland on
Monday night, and Golden had some sharp words when assessing his
performance. Harris sat out Monday’s
loss to the Terps.
