The No. 13 Miami Hurricanes (8-2, 4-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) received a lot of good news on the injury front heading into their road game against the Virginia Tech Hokies (3-7, 2-4 ACC) on Saturday (noon, ESPN).
Two starters who have missed multiple games are on track to return as they have no injury designation on the ACC’s availability report released Thursday night. A third is listed as probable. A fourth is listed as questionable.
The full rundown:
