I have tested positive for COVID-19. I am currently in isolation and feeling good overall. I will continue to work with our team virtually as we prepare for our next game at Wake Forest.

The Hurricanes were forced to revise their schedule on Monday due to coronavirus concerns. The ACC shuffled Miami's final three games of the season, pushing contests against Wake Forest, North Carolina, and Georgia Tech to December.
Diaz's squad was set to square off against the Yellow Jackets on Saturday.
The 12th-ranked Hurricanes were without 13 players last weekend in their victory against Virginia Tech and returned more positive tests this week.
Miami's game against Wake Forest is up next on its schedule, booked for Dec. 5.
