What A CAREER! ✨ Wishing Coach Jim Larrañaga the absolute best in his retirement! Coach Larrañaga was the 2013 wernerladderco Naismith Men’s College Coach of the Year. 

Read Coach Larrañaga's statement below:
"After more than fifty years in college coaching, it is simply time.  There is never a great moment to step away, but I owe it to our student-athletes, our staff and the University of Miami to make this move now when my heart is simply no longer in the game and I owe it to Liz, Jay, Jon, and my grandchildren to be a greater part of their lives. The University needs a new leader of the program, one who is both adept at and embracing of the new world of intercollegiate athletics. It has been the honor of a lifetime to be a part of the Hurricane Family and to represent this world-class institution. Most importantly, I have been so blessed to have coached the hundreds of young men who chose to wear the UM jersey and who have gone on to flourish in their respective journeys. I will always be a Cane.”
