Miami coach being patient with Belton

Miami University football coach is being patient with red-shirt freshmen quarterback Clay Belton, who was intercepted twice in the first half of last week’s blow-out loss to Kent State.

“Clay was a little bit inconsistent,” Montgomery said Friday, Oct. 31 at his weekly press conference. “He’s only starting his second football game. It would be hard to expect him to play a flawless football game. There are some reads he would like to have back, some throws he would like to have back.”

Montgomery said he liked the way Belton kept his composure and came back to guide the RedHawks on a couple touchdown drives in the fourth quarter.

“We’ve got some young guys around him,” Montgomery said, referring particularly to the wide receivers, “and a true freshman at tailback (J.R. Taylor), but I think he’s handled it well.”
