Miami Hurricanes Men's Basketball Receive Votes In Week 1 Poll
The Miami Hurricanes men's basketball team has scored over 200 points in the first two contests of the season and looks to continue its offensive dominance as competition begins to ramp up.
The Hurricanes have been an offense-by-committee group with multiple players hitting double figures while also trying to figure out if they want to be an inside/under-the-basket type of team or move to a modern 3-point style of basketball being played.
This has gotten several voters to respect Miami and their potential and what they have been doing on the offensive side of the ball. A few weeks from now, a few SEC Teams will stand in the way of the Hurricanes in No. 18 Arkansas and No. 11 Tennessee. Soon enough, more people will respect the Hurricanes and their offensive firepower that can compete with the best in the ACC and the country.
