Earlier this season, the Hurricanes were -- briefly -- a top 10 team. They could be headed that direction again.
After wins over Notre Dame and Georgia Tech last week, the Hurricanes' men's basketball team rose five spots to No. 12 in the most recent AP Top 25, which was released Monday. Miami also rose four spots to No. 11 in the USA Today Coaches Poll, also released Monday.
Miami, which enters the week with an 18-4 overall record and a 7-3 mark in ACC play, hosts Pittsburgh on Tuesday at the BankUnited Center before heading north to face rival FSU on Sunday.
