Miami and Florida State will feature a clash between the present and the past, as Seminoles head coach Leonard Hamilton coached at Miami from 1990–2000.
In his 10 seasons with the Hurricanes, Hamilton compiled a 144-147 record, advancing to the NCAA Tournament in each of his final three seasons with the team.
“Leonard does a great job,” Miami head coach Jim Larrañaga said. “It’s going to be a battle because of their size, speed and athleticism.”
Florida State (8-5, 2-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) enters Tuesday’s contest as winners of three out of its last four games, headlined by a 79-70 victory over Louisville Saturday.
