Four Miami basketball alums will begin play in the NBA Summer League on Friday. The On3 staff wrote an article published on Wednesday “Predicting Miami football’s record in 2023.”
After Plazz de-committed from Penn State last month, the Miami Hurricanes football program and North Carolina State emerged as his primary recruiters. Plazz will announce his commitment on Friday. Miami and NC State are tied for commitment from Plazz per 247 Sports and On3 lists Miami as the leader.

Most oddsmakers including FanDuel list the 2023 win total for Miami season at 7.5. FanDuel has point spreads listed for two 2023 Miami games.
