CORAL GABLES, Fla. — The Miami Hurricanes (4-16, 0-9 ACC) return home after a disappointing road trip leaving them winless in conference play but also showing a lot of promise to the fans in South Beach.

Many would assume that this team has quit but against Cal, the Hurricanes showed some sign of life that had been seen in quite some time. When there is a chance to win a game the Hurricanes are always gamed to perform.

Now they have a chance to get their first conference victory in over 20 games against the Virginia Cavaliers who had their coach retire at the beginning of the season similar to Jim Larranaga. NIL is taking a toll on these coaches and now both interim head coaches look to rally them to new heights.
