UM coach Manny Diaz: ‘Good teams improve while they’re winning' — and what he draws from Miami Heat

The No. 8 Miami Hurricanes are rolling to start the 2020 season, but coach Manny Diaz is stressing to his players that they can’t settle off this 3-0 start and 52-10 win over rival Florida State on Saturday night.

“Good teams improve while they’re winning,” Diaz told 560-AM on Monday morning. “They don’t wait until the pain of loss and then have the urgency to want to get better. They do it while things are good and everybody’s patting them on the back.”

That’s the approach UM will take into its idle week before getting a shot at No.
