CORAL GABLES, Fla. ZaDarius Smith Super Bowl Jersey . -- Brad Kaaya is expected to play this weekend for No. 16 Miami, though the standout quarterbacks shoulder injury remains a concern for the Hurricanes as they prepare for their matchup with North Carolina.The specifics of Kaayas injury arent known, other than the shoulder issue started when he was sacked on the first play of the Hurricanes 20-19 loss to Florida State this past Saturday. Hurricanes coach Mark Richt said Kaaya was shut down from throwing earlier this week, though that restriction was no longer in place when the team practiced Tuesday morning.He zipped the ball well, Richt said. I really dont think there was an issue. He practiced the whole way.Running back Mark Walton suggested otherwise, though said he believes Kaaya will be out there Saturday.He was shut down a little bit today in practice, Walton said. When he was throwing the ball, I think he was very accurate at times. Hes just coming on slowly but surely on getting his shoulder back together.Kaaya -- who had a tooth broken on one of the multiple hits to the head he took in last weekends loss -- was not available Tuesday to clear the confusion and discuss his status. Richt is not allowing him to meet with media this week, an unusual move given Kaayas team-leader status and Miamis long tradition of having its starting quarterback speak during game week.Ill be in there, Kaaya said last weekend, referring to the North Carolina game.The Tar Heels expect the same, especially given the stakes.Miami (4-1, 1-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) and North Carolina (4-2, 2-1) are both looking up at Virginia Tech (4-1, 2-0) and Virginia (2-3, 1-0) in the Coastal Division race. And though its early, the loser of the Hurricanes-Tar Heels game Saturday would already have two losses in league play and little margin for error the rest of the way.I would imagine hell play, so well prepare that way, North Carolina coach Larry Fedora said.Kaaya wont have right tackle Sunny Odogwu to help protect him this week, and probably not for the rest of the season. Odogwu is having surgery Wednesday to repair a lower leg injury.BADGLEY UNFAZEDMiami kicker Michael Badgley, whose potentially game-tying extra point with 1:38 left was blocked by Florida States DeMarcus Walker, seems unfazed by the miss.Asked what went wrong on the extra point -- snap, hold or kick -- Badgley said it was an execution thing on all parts of the field.All parts of the offense, defense, its a lot of things, Badgley said. To blame it all on one play, or go in on something like that, its kind of ridiculous. Footballs a team sport. Its how it always has been.Badgley had a PAT blocked and missed a short field goal in Miamis 2014 loss to Florida State at home as well -- a game the Hurricanes lost by four points.You could look back in the past all you want, Badgley said.
