  Draft Scout by Conference









  Shaquille Quarterman took a long look at leaving Miami for the NFL after his junior season, and it would not have been a shocker to see the Hurricanes' best linebacker turn pro. He ultimately came back, seeking a picture-perfect ending. "I think there's definitely a higher place for me," Quarterman said. He means those words in a literal sense. At Miami, All-Americans get their picture on the high on the wall of the team's practice facility. Quarterman looks at that wall, sees the best players ever to take the field with the "U'' on the side of their helmet — and wonders what it'd be like to be part of that group.

So the NFL can wait one more year. There are team goals he will chase as well, of course, but Quarterman simply wasn't ready to leave the Hurricanes with just a good collegiate resume. He wants a great one, and his final season at Miami starts Saturday in Orlando when the unranked Hurricanes take on No. 8 Florida in the resumption of one of college football's best rivalries. "It's huge," Quarterman said. "The rivalry started way before I was born. You've got people — very, very, very committed fans saying like, 'Hey, man, this is it right here. This is everything.' So you know that it's important. You would have to be blind and deaf to not know it's important. To bring that win home for this place, for this city, it would mean a lot." - AP College Football
