Key points:
1 Next 5 games are against teams under .500 in the ACC. Getting those 5 wins would help Miami get into the NIT.
2. Everyone practiced except Rodney Miller last week.
3. Playing hard, competing and being discipline are the team goals for the rest of the season. That does lead to wins.
4. Health wise, Keith Stone is pretty good. Let's hope he continues to play every game this season.
5. Rebounding is a team issue with the small lineups. Boxing out will help. Adding scholarship size will also help.

Key points.

1. Hopefully, everyone will be healthy and available for Wednesday. That is the hope for every game of every team honestly.
2. Rodney is limited by the ankle injury but he should be available for the game on Wednesday.
3. Coach L states they have discussed making a run late in the season when the schedule eases up.
4. The freshman have finally earned Coach L's stamp of approval.
5. Consistency is the only thing holding the freshman back. Coming from the coach who gave them inconsistent minutes early in the season.
6. Coach L wants backcourt scoring to be 3 guys with double figures and 2 guys with 8.
7. Right now, Coach L is focused on Boston College and not the record needed to make the NIT.
8. Boston College plays small ball so a healthy Rodney Miller could be a big factor.
9. DJ is still raising money for the fires in his country so please contribute.

Key points.

1. Team need to do a better job of focusing on the games.
2. Veterans needs to play with more confidence and impose their wills in road games.
3. Missing the preseason ACC player of the year, All-American and a first round draft pick has not been easy on the team.
