Tressel uncomfortable discussing title game (AP)
Jim Tressel shuns the past -- even when it involves perhaps the greatest night of his coaching career. Presented with a question on Tuesday about Ohio State's thrilling victory over Miami in the 2002 national championship game, Tressel sounded about as excited as a man shuffling off to dental surgery. |

Hankerson juggles football, school and parenthood (AP)
Miami wide receiver Leonard Hankerson is already experiencing things his own father never could. It's a Saturday morning in South Florida. Hankerson is at a park, watching a bunch of 4-year-olds shuffling around a football field in helmets and shoulder pads for the first time. He's watching the boy everyone around the Hurricanes calls "Lil' Hank." His son. |

Ohio State week churns some bad memories for Miami (AP)
Margaret Belch still has the picture she snapped of the American flag being unfurled moments before Miami played Ohio State for the national championship game eight seasons ago. Another flag, however, is the one she can't forget. From her spot at the 2003 Fiesta Bowl -- Section 228, row 27, seat 18 -- the Miami graduate thought she witnessed the Hurricanes beating Ohio State 24-17 in overtime... |

LeBron a Miami resident, not yet a 'Canes fan (AP)
LeBron James didn't change all his teams this summer. James posted on his Twitter feed Thursday that he's considering going to Columbus, Ohio, on Sept. 11 to see the matchup between No. 2 Ohio State -- his longtime team of choice -- and No. 13 Miami. And no, the former Cleveland Cavaliers star isn't rooting for the Hurricanes. |

Harris sharp as No. 13 Miami rolls in opener, 45-0 (AP)
Jacory Harris and the Miami Hurricanes have been trying to not think too much about their long-awaited trip to Ohio State. It's all they'll think about for the next week -- and Harris might be ready for the challenge. Harris completed 12 of 15 passes for 210 yards and three touchdowns before sitting out the second half, and the 13th-ranked Hurricanes got their first shutout since 2006 by... |

Florida A&M-Miami Preview Capsule (AP)
Florida A&M (0-0) at No. 13 Miami (0-0), 7:30 p.m. EDT (ESPN3.com) Line: No line. Series Record: Miami leads 7-1. Last Meeting: 2009, Miami 48-16. What's at Stake Bragging rights, mostly. Florida A&M believes it was far more competitive in last season's matchup than the final score, and with a roster loaded with players from the Sunshine State, it seems like a rivalry game for the Rattlers. |

Shannon has a calm air entering a new Miami season (AP)
Although he'd never say so, Miami coach Randy Shannon's future was most uncertain a year ago. Months of talking about a new contract for Shannon had gone almost nowhere, and he was faced with the unenviable task of trying to convince recruits to spend the next four years of their lives at Miami -- while unable to guarantee them he'd actually be with the Hurricanes past the 2010 season. |

For some 'Canes, being at Miami is family business (AP)
Kenny Berry won a national championship in his final season at Miami. Alonzo Highsmith's title ring came in a season when hardly anybody expected the Hurricanes to be great. Their sons would like to see history repeat. For Damien Berry and A.J. Highsmith, being part of the Miami football family is extra significant -- since their fathers helped build the tradition the current Hurricanes want to... |

Marlins' infield dirt to provide Miami a challenge (AP)
When No. 13 Miami opens its season against Florida A&M on Thursday night, the Hurricanes won't exactly be worried about dirty plays. Plays on the dirt might be the problem. The start of football season overlaps with the end of baseball season, and since the Florida Marlins also call Sun Life Stadium home, the baseball infield -- elbow-chewing, knee-scraping, unyielding dirt -- will remain until... |

Bosher much more than a kicker for No. 13 Miami (AP)
There will almost certainly be a moment this season when Miami kicker Matt Bosher sprints toward an opposing returner, ready to deliver a jarring, high-speed tackle. And in that moment, Hurricanes special teams coach Joe Pannunzio will be petrified. "A couple years ago, we ran a fake punt against Florida State and I told him to just get the first down and then to get out of bounds,"... |
