Miami keeps rolling under first-year head coach Jai Lucas, crushing Boston College 76-54 on Saturday afternoon in the Watsco Center. Despite the ACC preseason poll projecting an eighth-place finish, the Hurricanes sit at 23-6 overall and 12-4 in conference play, holding a firm grip on third place in the ACC.
After a disappointing 7-24 campaign last year, Miami has transformed into one of the ACC's top teams under coach Lucas. His first sign of greatness came off the court, flipping five-star small forward Shelton Henderson, a former Duke commit and one of the top prospects in the 2025 class, to Miami.
