    Canes Hoops (men and women) have an overseas trip to Italy in August 2019. (Great for recruiting)

    Honestly, 20-10 or 22-8 are my low end theory. 24-6 is aggressive but the ACC is weaker this season than last season. On paper, only Louisville is as experienced as Miami. Duke, Carolina, Virginia and Florida State are vulnerable as they are very inexperienced. Inexperienced meaning known...

    I think recruiting has been solid except Miami has not hit a home run lately (5 star prospect). It is still much better than the pre Coach L era.

    Is it just me or is Coach L the only guy who knows one play is rehabbing a knee injury (Gak) while he takes a grad transfer rehabbing a knee injury (Stone) then fells to use his last two available scholarship on two grad transfer bigs then he follows it up by complaining about health and a lack...

    A 4 guard lineup is doable in spurts (5 minute increments) given how well those 4 guards rebound. The four guards during that spurt could be Wong, Beverly, McGusty and Vasiljevic so they can switch on the perimeter and they will have more size for rebounding without Lykes. The key to this...

    Thank you for agreeing with the new basketball standard, the question is how do we get there. Most feel Brooks would help Miami reach that goal this season. We as fans want to hear Coach L say "Nysier Brooks has applied for a waiver and we are waiting on an answer from the NCAA". Anything...

    In fairness, as the voice of reasoning in this group, The FBI corruption investigation only hurt recruiting for one season. The frustration Hotshot and others talk about is the failure to use all 13 scholarships once incoming freshman are not an option. Coach L and staff should have added grad...

    I don't think Coach L wants that to happen. I think Coach L wants to add Rodney beside Tonye to tell other bigs how the coaching staff develops bigs at Miami and how they also graduate. Coach L has been very protective with Rodney in my opinion.

    Comments on some of the responses I read. Next year (2020) Brooks will be part of a legitimate top-10 team and title contender in Coral Gables. My response, why wait til next season when Miami averaged 86 points per game with only 10 practices under their belt in Italy. Winning this season...

    Follow up about Nysier Brooks: A different perspective If Brooks plays this season, right now he is the #2 behind Rodney Miller until Deng Gak is healthy then you would figure he would still be in the rotation as Miller and Gak will get into foul trouble every game (not a bad thing, it means...

    Canes Hoops (men and women) have an overseas trip to Italy in August 2019. (Great for recruiting)

    I don't know. I would disagree with the too many bigs argument because that was the thought process last season when we had Dewan, Ebuka and Rodney. Rodney takes a redshirt because he was #3 center on the depth chart then Dewan is suspended for what was originally thought to be a few games...

    I apologize for being late to a really good conversation. I guess I will add to the discussion. Better late than never.

    I agree with you and we should probably use the term "center by committee" so no one get offended. LOL. If all three play (Miller, Brooks and Gak) and can give Miami 24 points and 20 rebounds (combine effort approximated 8 points and 6.5 rebounds each) then Miami should average over 90 points...

    Canes Hoops (men and women) have an overseas trip to Italy in August 2019. (Great for recruiting)

    I am completely against the narrative that Nysier Brooks should sit out this season to play next season. My 3 reasons why: 1. There is more guaranteed playing time for Nysier this season with the inexperience of Rodney Miller and current injury recovery situation with Deng Gak. As we all...
