Minnis, who missed the first two games and played sparingly in the next two, had his first receptions of the season Saturday against Duke. His two catches were good for 25 yards and, despite saying he's still less than 90 percent, he showed his speed and his big-play ability. Miami senior C Ty Wise doesn't believe his team's four-game losing streak to FSU, the longest in nearly a generation, is a psychological hurdle. So, I think we're real confident. That's when the team gets better.
Guys go out and play, they evaluate their performances and then they get better the next week.
But this time, the bye was fortuitous. Jackson is still not certain to start, but his sprained right ankle would likely have kept him on the sideline Saturday. All rights reserved.
