CORAL GABLES - Colin McCarthy will not play against Georgia Tech on Saturday due to a mild concussion he suffered last week against North Carolina.

McCarthy, a strongside linebacker, is third on the team on tackles with 34 and has one interception.

Darryl Sharpton will make his first start of the season at middle linebacker with Tavares Gooden moving to strongside filling in for McCarthy.

LEGGETT AILING: Senior WR Lance Leggett did not practice this week due to an undisclosed injury he suffered last game and his status is unknown.

"I don't know right now," Coach Randy Shannon said after Thursday's practice. "I'll find that out today, what he is going to do, if he is going to play or not."

KICKING DUTIES: Shannon is not happy with K Francesco Zampogna, who has converted 9-for-14 field goals this season, and has opened up the position. Daren Daly and P Matt Bosher are competing for the spot, but a decision has not been make.

"We'll make that decision [Friday] after we do a couple of kicking things," Shannon said.
