1. Be sure to add another $1M for the Final Four bonus

2. Not Miami's fault your NIL funds are light

That’s great publicity right there. Don’t mind that at all

[GonzoCane]

That’s great publicity right there. Don’t mind that at all

Money well spent.

 

[CFLCane]

Right back at you **********

I hope you get gored in the **** by a longhorn.

 

[SFbayCane]

As our women’s team has currently shot 2 FTs compared to LSU‘s 22 FTs

In the few games Ive watched of the lady Canes this season, it always seems to be the one butch looking ref that makes all the bad calls against the lady Canes. I wonder why that is?

 

[Shooter McGavin]

Lmao.

My girlfriend is having major surgery later this week so if you are laughing at that then I suggest you get ****ed.

Guess that didn't notice that horrible offensive foul call on wong where the defender was holding wongs arm for dear life. That Call literally could have cost miami the game...

 

[anr96]

I guess Texas figured out how we won

 

[Shooter McGavin]

I hope you get gored in the **** by a longhorn.

Wishing harm on another person. Stay classy *******.

Seriouosly?

In the grand scheme of things, a regular season win over ND was meaningless (national media) because nobody is hanging a banner over that accomplishment.

If we had beat them in a NY6 bowl game, I would've agreed with you because of the higher stakes.

Defeating Houston earned us another trip to the Elite Eight. If had Texas, nobody would be mad about hanging an Elite Eight banner.

 

[chris2183l]

I see Uconn is already 5 pt favorites...lol #dontpickus

 

[SFbayCane]

I wanna revisit this:

Has any team ever beaten #1, #2, and #4 to get to a final four before? That's the toughest possible path.

What a comeback! Absolutely fantastic. The team never quit (even when down by a lot) and Jordan Miller, Wong (in the 2nd half), Norchad & Poplar willed us to victory. This was absolutely a team effort but no-one deserves more credit for this one than Jordan Miller. He delivered a literally historic performance today and was unbelievable scoring points from the field and the FT line.

Jordan Miller: He scored 27 points and was 7 for 7 from the field and 13 of 13 from the foul line. Wow! How clutch was that? So special to get to experience a glorious performance like that and a great team victory.

Isiah Wong also stepped up big time in the second half to will us to victory...after a pretty quiet first half. We would have lost the game had he not asserted himself in the second half.

Poplar made some super heady plays like bouncing the ball off the UT player on the in-bounds and setting up an easy dunk with another inbounds pass...plus he was his usual athletic self driving to the basket.

Norchad was just a man amongst boys & refused to be out-physicalled. Man he makes some heavily contested baskets in the paint.

This was a historic win for the program. First time ever in the Final Four for Men's Basketball. There was much to clean up though for the next game:

1) We were not nearly as crisp or clinical as Texas in the first half.

2) There were plenty of poor passes. Walker had a really loose one and so did a couple of other guys. We had too many turnovers & sloppy plays. This wasn't nearly the clinical performance we put on against Houston. We cannot waste possessions & be sloppy with the ball against UConn or we will lose. Only the best ball handlers should tote the rock against UConn.

3) Too many busts on D leading to uncontested shots for Texas or even the middle of the paint being wide open for them. They had far too many easy & uncontested shots. Press is great when it works but can lead to some easy shots for the opponent when the first level doesn't get the job done. Whatever we did on D against Houston is what we should do against UConn because we demoralized Houston with fabulous D.

4) Shot selection was poor for certain stretches of the game. The saving Grace was that Miller & Wong took high percentage shots & made a ton of them (for Miller it was 100% of them).

5) We need Pack & others straight dealing with the 3-pointers. Nijel played a huge role tonight even if he didn't have his best scoring night...but we need his scoring against UConn. We can absolutely win against UConn if all of best scorers simply go off in the same game (Miller, Wong, Pack, Norchad & Poplar).

Major opportunity: The 1-seeds are all out. The blue bloods have been supplanted by the upstarts (except UConn). Are we starting to feel it? Yes, we're starting to feel it. Possibility is in the air if the team stays focused, cleans up some of the issues, and plays clean & clinical team ball against UConn.

As a former member of the SID at Miami who was a volunteer undergrad assistant for Men's Basketball in the old Miami Arena, I can't tell you how thrilled I am for the coaches, the players, their families, and the program. Special thanks also to JR for all that you do. Magical just magical...and yes, I also shed some tears of joy this evening. Go Canes!

[Ispyin]

I had to **** so bad the last 10 minutes of the game lol

 

[Shooter McGavin]

We are all very sorry if your girlfriend is having Major surgery. And of course I would never laugh at something like that. Just like I would never quit on a team. You have a very foul mouth. Good luck to you. Go Canes.

**** off don’t say that **** to me
