    Coach Larrañaga: This is a crazy business now

    A lot of those schools had uncertainty on their rosters, and that's what they sold those guys. Yes, some of them ended up on the bench because things changed, but those rosters weren't nearly as set as Miami's was coming off of two deep runs. That's the difference. Also keep in mind that you...

    Coach Larrañaga: This is a crazy business now

    I don't think L would take him back even if he did try to return. L looked disgusted with the entire thing, because it doesn't make sense to transfer, when you are being developed and will get more minutes next season. Don't allow your program to be someone's backup option, dude went into the...

    Coach Larrañaga: This is a crazy business now

    I double checked, he is a junior, so he is a one year rental. Even more so a reason for him to transfer, you don't want to leave your last year to chance in regards to minutes if they aren't guaranteed.

    Coach Larrañaga: This is a crazy business now

    I think he was honest too. Bens is a glue guy that can play, but you can't have him as a starter on a top end team. He's either a starter on a mediocre team, or a key rotation piece on a potential top end team.

    Coach Larrañaga: This is a crazy business now

    It's EXTREMELY unlikely Bens is starting if he returned to Miami. If Pack comes back(Which is very possible), Bens is on the bench, no way L lets him start over Bethea and that's before you get into any new portal guards. Bens is at his best off the bench, but I understand WHY he would be...

    Coach Larrañaga: This is a crazy business now

    L's issue with the portal isn't that it exists(Like Saban), his issue is that honestly, the current system as it is set up hurts more kids than it helps. Young student athletes now are playing program hopscotch, if they don't get exactly what they want. L isn't digging in like Dabo Swinney, L...

    Coach Larrañaga: This is a crazy business now

    L discussed it during the press conference. You could tell he was frustrated about losing SOMEONE to the portal, and I bet you it was Nwoko. The others were extremely likely losses. Nwoko needs development time, the issue is that L and his staff can't be honest with him because this is exactly...
