FBI investigation
On September 26, 2017 federal prosecutors in New York announced that various schools were under investigation for an alleged "pay for play" scheme involving recruits at various schools including Miami. On October 23, head coach Jim Larrañaga announced that he believed he was one of the coaches implicated in the FBI indictment. Larrañaga insisted that he had done nothing wrong, however.
