Miami has come up with an interesting way toincentivize players to force turnovers.

Hurricanes defensive coordinator Manny Diaz introduced a turnover chain to his players on Saturday before the Bethune-Cookman game, according to a report from 247 Sports.

He told us this morning about the turnover chain,linebackerShaquille Quartermansaid after the game. It goes to whoever gets the turnover. You get to rock that huge Miami-style chain it was just another incentive.

The chain apparently made its first appearance in fourth quarter when sophomore corner Malek Young intercepted a pass.

We didnt really need much, Quarterman said. But that was definitely an incentive. Seeing Malek get it was amazing because we all wanted to know who was going to be the first guy to get it. Malek did his thing and he earned it, so congrats to him.

Miami ranked fifth in the ACC in fumbles recovered in 2016 and 13th in interceptions.

Ryan Finesended the game with the chain after recovering a fumble on Bethune-Cookmans last drive, the report stated.

Cody McClure is an SEC Football Writer for Saturday Down South. He lives in Knoxville, Tennessee, where he also co-hosts a midday sports radio show for FOX Sports. Cody previously worked for Athlon Sports and The Oak Ridger.
