No. 12 Miami Hurricanes rally from second-half deficit, then holds off FIU

By TIM REYNOLDS CORAL GABLES — Matthew Cleveland scored 23 points, Bensley Joseph and Wooga Poplar each added 18 and No. 12 Miami rallied from a 12-point second-half deficit to beat neighboring FIU 86-80 on Monday night. Nigel Pack scored 17 points and Norchad Omier had 11 rebounds for the Hurricanes (3-0), who won a game with wild back-and-forth momentum swings. Arturo Dean scored 19 for FIU (0-3), while Dashon Gittens added 14 and Javaunte Hawkins had 11. The Panthers fell to 0-25 all-time against ranked opponents — and, playing a road game nine miles from their own campus, had a big chance...

Unlike Jimbo Fisher, Mike Norvell would never leave FSU for Texas A&M, right? | Commentary

Florida State football Mike Norvell would never leave Florida State for Texas A&M. Never. Ever. Not in a million, zillion years. Would he? Well … would he? The reason I ask is because back in 2017, I wrote a column saying that Jimbo Fisher would never leave Florida State for a “lesser” job at Texas A&M. Even though there were media reports in early November of 2017 that Fisher might be one of A&M’s prime targets, I regrettably dismissed the reports and thought it was ludicrous that Fisher would bail on FSU after one bad season to jump into the meat-grinder known as the SEC. Now six...

3 things learned from No. 4 FSU’s home victory over Miami

By Bob Ferrante Orlando Sentinel Correspondent TALLAHASSEE — Florida State didn’t win a rivalry game in the 2018, ’19 and ’20 seasons. Now the Seminoles are a victory away from a sweep of Clemson, Miami and Florida — which the program hasn’t done since 2014. Jarrian Jones’ fourth-down interception of Tyler Van Dyke halted Miami’s upset bid and gave the Seminoles a 27-20 win on Saturday night, Florida State’s third straight victory in the series. “It’s just so big for the program, so big for our fan base, the university, everybody involved,” FSU coach Mike Norvell said. “I’m just proud of these...

Winderman’s view: Duncan Robinson continues as revelation, leads Heat vs. Spurs

Observations and other notes of interest from Sunday night’s 118-113 victory over the San Antonio Spurs: – Duncan Robinson. – Value contract. – For all that has been uneven for the Heat at the start of this season, the ultimate revelation has been Duncan Robinson. – Because it hasn’t just been Robinson at the arc. – It also has been Robinson inside the arc. – As it was again Sunday. – On this night, as much of a threat as Bam Adebayo. – Yes, there still will be nights when the shot is off. – As there are for most 3-point shooters. – Which was the case Saturday in Atlanta for Robinson. – But...

Heat overcome 19-point deficit, extend win streak to five with 118-113 decision in San Antonio

The exhaustion was legitimate, the Heat playing in San Antonio on the second night of a back-to-back set that began with Saturday night’s victory in Atlanta. The challenge was tangible, Tyler Herro remaining out with his ankle sprain and Kyle Lowry, at 37, given the night off for rest. But the groove is real. Very real. So for the first time in two seasons, the Miami Heat are on a five-game winning streak. Overcoming an early 19-point deficit and embracing the return of Jimmy Butler after he was missing a night earlier for personal reasons, the Heat pushed past the Spurs 118-113 Sunday night...

Winderman’s view: Heat show vs. Hawks the ability to do more with less

Observations and other notes of interest from Saturday night’s 117-109 victory over the Atlanta Hawks: – Because this is what the Heat do, find a way to make it a game even when the roster says otherwise. – This time no Jimmy Butler or Tyler Herro. – But, as coach Erik Spoelstra said pregame, “We have a lot of guys that have been chomping at the bit to try to get more minutes, and they’re going to get their opportunity now. The guys are prepared.” – So Jaime Jaquez Jr. and Duncan Robinson as starters. – A return by Kevin Love. – Time for Dru Smith and Jamal Cain. – And there it stood, a 21-point...

Adebayo, Jaquez lead Heat past Hawks 117-109 in absences of Herro, Butler

ATLANTA – The margin of error was slight even after going up 21 in the first half. With Tyler Herro and Jimmy Butler out for the Miami Heat, that simply is the reality. So even with Bam Adebayo a portrait of efficiency and even with Jaime Jaquez Jr. playing with more maturity than should be expected from a rookie, there the Heat were Saturday night in a fourth-quarter scramble in what ultimately turned into a 117-109 victory against the Atlanta Hawks at State Farm Arena. The absence of Herro will be an ongoing reality, after the fifth-year guard sustained a Grade 2 ankle sprain in Wednesday...
