Miami will have starting quarterback Tyler Van Dyke back this week for the Hurricanes’ home game against Virginia on Saturday.
Van Dyke missed last Saturday’s 28-20 double-overtime win over Clemson due to an undisclosed injury. Miami coach Mario Cristobal said Monday that Van Dyke was “good to go” and practiced earlier in the day.
“Last week caught us off guard during the week,” Cristobal said. “He doesn’t have anything that’s serious, but if it takes a certain turn it can delay you, so that’s really what ended up happening. We’re in a good place right now.”
In his fourth season playing for the Hurricanes, Van Dyke has completed 70.5 percent of his throws for 1,721 yards, 16 touchdowns and six interceptions for Miami (5-2, 1-2 ACC).
In Van Dyke’s absence, freshman Emory Williams completed 24 of 33 passes for 151 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Miami’s win over Clemson.
