CORAL GABLES, Fla. (AP) — Miami says it will remain committed to the Atlantic Coast Conference.
Hurricanes athletic director Shawn Eichorst released a statement Friday saying the school has not had any “formal or informal discussions” about switching affiliations.
Speculation about schools like Florida State, Clemson and Miami in the ACC has increased in recent days, with reports linking all three on some level to the Big 12. Florida State says it has not talked to the Big 12, and the chairman of Clemson’s board of trustees said Thursday that the Tigers have not received any offers to move out of the ACC.
On Friday, Miami insisted it was staying put as well, with Eichorst saying “we are committed to the ACC.”
Miami joined the ACC in 2004.
