Miami returns nine play- ers, including four who started all three games in the ACC Tournament, in addition to the ACC’s three-point UMIAMI field goal percentage leader. Haith and the Hurricanes are striving for their third 20-win season in four years and their fifth postseason appearance in seven years. 31 STAFF Coach Haith and his tireless staff returns to the hardwood in 2010-11 determined to develop outstanding young men, both on and off the court. In addition to building the program, Haith and the Hurricanes have had 21 players graduate since 2005. 43 HURRICANES Veteran Hurricane Adrian Thomas leads the Miami campaign in 2010- 11. With one year of Miami hoops together under their belts, look for Durand Scott, Reggie Johnson and Malcolm Grant to continue to make waves for the ‘Canes.
