The Miami Hurricanes are losing a ton of talent on the hardwood going into next season, so head coach Jim Larranaga is doing all he can to soften the blow that will be ‘rebuild’ mode.
Things just got a little easier on Thursday when Toledo Owens Community College forward James Kelly decided to sign the The U. Kelly is a 6-foot-8, 240-pounder who averaged 18.5 points and 10.1 rebounds per game last season, setting single-season and career school records for rebounds and blocked shots.
Kelly, a three-star prospect, chose Miami over Michigan State, New Mexico and West Virginia and he will be on UM’s campus this summer to start his integration into Coach L’s program.
