CORAL GABLES, Fla. — The only time Miami coach Jim Larranaga could recall taking off his suit jacket during a game was about 20 years ago, back when he was at Bowling Green.
That is, until Wednesday night.
Larranaga’s first technical foul in years worked wonders.
Sheldon McClellan scored 21 points, Tonye Jekiri finished with 15 points and 15 rebounds, and Miami shook off a slow start to easily beat Virginia Tech 76-52 to help improve its NCAA tournament resume’.
“It definitely boosted us when Coach took his jacket off,” McClellan said. “Seemed he got a little hot.”
So did his team.
