First time Miami will not play Duke since joining the ACC; Canes basketball conference schedule released

For the first time since Miami joined the ACC, the Hurricanes basketball program will not face the Duke Blue Devils. This is disappointing, especially considering that the past few months have seen intense competition between Miami and Duke, particularly with Miami getting Jai Lucas and bringing in Shelton Henderson.

Despite all that, Miami's full ACC home and away schedule has been released, and the Hurricanes will have nine conference games at home and nine conference games away.

Check out the full Miami Hurricanes ACC schedule below:

HOME:
Boston College
Califronia
FSU
Georgia Tech
Louisville
North Carolina
Pittsburgh
Stanford
Virginia Tech

AWAY:
Boston College
Clemson
FSU
NC State
Notre Dame
SMU
Syracuse
Virginia
Wake Forest

They wouldn't want the Conference Darling to start losing big recruits to Miami.

And they wonder why everyone wants to leave the acc. They must hate money and viewers.

The ACC has, and will always be, a North Carolina Conference that happens to have other non-NC schools to fill out their schedule and comply with NCAA conference requirements.
I learned this 40 years ago from my UofMaryland days. There is a reason these 4 schools are known as the "Tobacco Road Mafia". The rest of us are the conference "help".

So stupid, what a blown opportunity by the ACC. They must be allergic to ratings and storylines.

Instead we get to play BC twice.

Disappointing as it would be fun to see Jai v. Scheyer. But not a huge deal, and certainly doesn't warrant the "hate ACC" hyperbolic nonsense.

Aren't there like 30 basketball games a season? How do you not play every conference member at least once?

I think this is because the ACC recently cut the # of conference games from 20 to 18. But I don’t feel the need to play two teams twice and leave one out. Apparently that’s how this new model will work.
