Lucas is staying in the ACC and, at 36, will be the youngest high-major coach when he takes over Miami following this weekend

Jai Lucas is the next head coach of the Miami Hurricanes and now he has a tasked to develop a culture for his program.

Lucas takes over a Miami program that lost longtime head coach Jim Larrañaga, who retired in December midway through the season. Former assistant Bill Courtney has worked as Miami's interim head coach since Larrañaga stepped down. Miami is in the midst of a 6-24 campaign, with a 2-17 record in ACC play that's good for last place in the conference.
