Jim Larrañaga stepping down at Miami, Bill Courtney to take over, AP source says
Jim Larrañaga is stepping down as Miami’s men’s basketball coach effective immediately, a person with knowledge of the decision said Thursday. Larrañaga will be replaced by associate head coach Bill Courtney — one of Larrañaga’s best friends for the past three decades or so — for the remainder of the season, the person said. The decision by Larrañaga ends a 14-year run as coach of the Hurricanes — and, presumably, a 41-year college career that saw him win 744 games at Miami, American International, George Mason and Bowling Green.
