Belton gets serious look as Miami’s starting quarterback for Saturday
By Pete Conrad
Red-shirt freshman quarterback Clay Belton is getting a serious look from Miami University football coach Shane Montgomery as the possible starter in the RedHawks’ upcoming game Saturday, Oct. 18 at Bowling Green.
Montomgery said it will be “a game-time decision” as to whether Belton or junior Daniel Raudabaugh will start.
It was Belton on the field at Yager Stadium rather than Raudabaugh — who has started the last 13 games — for Miami’s hurry-up offense drill at the end of practice late Wednesday afternoon, Oct. 15.
“There’s a good chance both of them will play,” Montgomery said following practice. “We’re trying to give them both reps with the ones (first-string offense).”
Raudabaugh has passed for 1,189 yards this season and needs just 90 yards to become the sixth quarterback in Miami history to reach the 4,000-yard mark for his career.
The RedHawks’ offense, however, has scored only one touchdown in the last two games.
