Miami Basketball: UM basketball is one of 10 teams that can win national championship this season
Miami Hurricanes basketball will enter 2023-24 season with legit aspirations of winning a national championship, and Jamie Shaw of On3 agrees.
Shaw put together a list of teams “could win a men’s basketball national championship in 2023-24” and the Hurricanes were included. The other nine teams listed by Shaw were Arizona, Arkansas, UConn, Michigan State, Duke, Houston, Kansas, Kentucky and Purdue.
Here’s what Shaw had to say about the Hurricanes:
Quick, tell me all the teams who have made it to both of the previous Elite Eights. Miami is the answer, and that is the entire list. In 2022, the Hurricanes made it to the first Elite Eight in program history. They then followed that up in 2023 with the first Final Four in program history. Miami lost two players to the NBA, ACC Player of the Year Isaiah Wong and first-team All-ACC Jordan Miller. However, they return Nijel Pack and Norchad Omier. Omier is a productive college basketball post player who led the ACC in total rebounds last season and finished top ten in blocks and steals per game. Pack is a career 41.6 percent shooter from three and has already scored 1,287 career points in his three seasons.
