Miami Hurricanes' Jacory Harris tries to clean up mistakes
Quarterback Jacory Harris sees a common theme with his interceptions. Harris has thrown 11 this season -- most in the Atlantic Coast Conference. He also has been sacked 24 times, third most in the ACC.
``It's been a common thing,'' Harris said of the interceptions. ``I'd say last game [Wake Forest], the Oklahoma game and FAMU, just about all the interceptions look the same. It's the same blitz, the same coverage and the same routes. But just a different play going to that side.''
So the challenge now, Harris said Tuesday, is ``when we're running something of that kind just to make sure I'm doing the opposite of what I have been doing.''
Harris said he and offensive coordinator Mark Whipple sit down every week and review every pass he throws.
``I'm making little mistakes here and there. For the most part I'm doing OK,'' Harris said. ``One of the picks I threw was costly [last] week. But I don't think any interceptions put us in real bad situations to the point where we couldn't get out of it.''
Coach Randy Shannon said running back Javarris James was back at practice Wednesday. It is not clear whether James will be back in the lineup this week after missing the Wake Forest game with a ``lower extremity'' injury.
