ACC Preview #14 - Miami
GREENVILLE, SC - MARCH 20: Isaiah Wong #2 of the Miami Hurricanes dunks the ball against the Auburn Tigers during the second round of the 2022 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament held at Bon Secours Wellness Arena on March 20, 2022 in Greenville, South Carolina.Miami is a tough job and looking back, Jim Larranaga, who had been at George Mason, was a brilliant hire.
At Mason he could not recruit the same players the power conference schools went after, so he perfected a knack of finding guys who were just a little off, who for whatever reason, were passed over: too small, too heavy, maybe with a missing tool in their skillset that someone else on the team could compensate for.
