In a surprising move amid a challenging season, Jim Larrañaga has announced his resignation as the head coach of the Miami Hurricanes basketball team. Citing exhaustion and the pressures of the modern collegiate sports landscape, particularly with the emergence of NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) regulations, Larrañaga expressed that it was simply time to step away after a historic career. His resignation comes as the team struggles with a 4-8 record this season, prompting the appointment of Bill Courtney as interim head coach to finish out the year. Larrañaga, who was celebrated as Miami’s all-time winningest coach, had led the team to a Final Four appearance just two years prior.
