Hurricanes may reinstate Moore

CORAL GABLES, Fla. – Ryan Moore stood on the sideline on a breezy Tuesday, tossing a football around with Miami teammates before practice began.

His actions only looked insignificant.

Moore’s return from an indefinite suspension may be looming. Hurricanes coach Larry Coker said the senior could see his first action of the season Saturday, when Miami visits No. 21 Georgia Tech in a game that’ll likely go a long way in deciding the Atlantic Coast Conference’s Coastal Division race.

“He’s in good enough shape that he possibly could play against Georgia Tech,” Coker said.

Coker stopped short of saying Moore has been reinstated, and wouldn’t divulge if Moore would continue practicing with the team. Moore has been with the team for at least two other practices in recent weeks.

Miami (5-2, 2-1) could have up to 12 other suspended players back this week, all who sat out last Saturday’s 20-15 win over Duke for their involvement in a sideline-clearing brawl against Florida International the week before.
