Headed to Norman Pack will transfer to Oklahoma, per Joe Tipton of On3.com.
Impact Pack has one final season of eligibility remaining after spending two years at Kansas State and three with Miami (FL). In 2024-2025, however, he only played nine games while dealing with a foot injury and a horrific 'Canes basketball team that finished 7-24 and dead last in the ACC. The guard will look to revitalize his career with the Sooners. His best year came in 2021 with the Wildcats, when he averaged 17.1 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.3 steals while shooting 43.6 percent from downtown.

Plans to enter portal again Pack (foot) plans to enter the NCAA's transfer portal, according to Keegan Pope of On3.com.

No timeline for return Interim head coach Bill Courtney indicated that Pack (foot) is out indefinitely, per Christopher Stock of 247Sports.com.
Impact Pack has missed each of the last five games for the Hurricanes with a foot injury and apparently has no timeline for a return. The senior guard has been an impact player for Miami in his time on the floor this season, averaging 13.9 points and 4.3 assists per game through nine contests. The Hurricanes will hope to see Pack return to the floor ASAP, with his next opportunity to return coming against Wake Forest on Saturday.

Misses narrow loss to VT Pack (foot) didn't play for Miami in the 'Canes' narrow 86-85 loss to Virginia Tech.
Impact Pack wasn't a starter, so it's altogether unsurprising that he didn't play while still nursing a foot injury. In his stead, Divine Ugochukwu got the start at point guard. That figures to remain the case if Pack can't play in Miami's next game, a rivalry clash with Florida State on Jan. 8.

Not starting vs. Hokies Pack (foot) isn't in Miami's starting lineup against Virginia Tech, David Cunningham of Tech Sidelines reports.
Impact Pack appears extremely likely to miss the contest given his absence from the starting five - he's started every game he's been available in three seasons in Coral Gables. The point guard averages 13.9 points, 3.0 rebounds and 4.3 assists this season. If he can't go, Divine Ugochukwu is a candidate to start at the one for Miami.

Out at Boston College Pack (foot) is out for Miami's game Wednesday at Boston College, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.
Impact Now, Miami's 2025 schedule is expected to begin without Pack. During the 2024 part of Miami's current season, he averaged 13.9 points, 4.3 assists and 3.0 rebounds. Also, Jim Larranaga leaving Miami in between Pack's absences may not affect him for the time being, but it definitely will be something the injured senior will consider.
JANUARY 1 • ROTOWIRE
Remains sidelined Pack (foot) will be re-evaluated in a week, per Michelle Kaufman of the Miami Herald.
Impact Pack has now missed three straight games as he continues to battle a foot injury. He has also been dealing with an illness this past week and an update on his status should be provided next week. As long as Pack remians sidelined, Divine Ugochukwu will likely continue to serve as the team's starting point guard.

DNP with foot injury Pack (foot) did not play in Sunday's 94-75 victory over Presbyterian.
Impact Pack was held out of Sunday's contest with a foot injury, marking his second missed game of the season. The senior guard previously missed a game against Charleston Southern with an undisclosed injury before returning for three contests heading into Sunday. Pack has been a star for the Hurricanes in his time on the floor, averaging 13.9 points, three rebounds and 4.3 assists per game through nine contests this season, though the team was able to get the job done without him, cruising to a comfortable 19-point win. Pack's next opportunity to return will come when the Hurricanes host Mount St. Mary's on Saturday.

Season high in return Pack finished with 22 points (9-16 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds and six assists across 33 minutes during Tuesday's 76-73 loss to Arkansas.
Impact Pack missed a Nov. 30 game against Charleston Southern with an undisclosed injury and was considered questionable for this contest. Not only did he suit up, but Pack ended up producing season highs in both scoring and rebounding, though it wasn't enough to stave off John Calipari's Razorbacks in a narrow home loss.

Will play vs. Hogs Pack (undisclosed) will be available against Arkansas, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.
Impact Pack missed the Hurricanes' last game against Charleston Southern, but is set to return for a big ACC-SEC clash on Tuesday night. The starting point guard is averaging 15.2 points, 2.5 rebounds and 4.7 assists, and his return should sent Jalil Bethea to the bench.
DECEMBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Deemed a game-time call Pack (undisclosed) is a game-time decision for Miami against Arkansas on Tuesday night, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.
Impact Pack also missed Miami's last game against Charleston Southern. It's unclear what's ailing the point guard, but it's threatening to force him to miss multiple contests. If Pack - who averages 15.2 points, 2.5 rebounds and 4.7 assists - can't play, expect Jalil Bethea to get the start in his stead once again.
DECEMBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Out vs. Charleston Southern Pack (undisclosed) won't play against Charleston Southern, Adam Lichtenstein of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Impact Pack will miss his first game of the season. The starting point guard, who's averaging 15.2 points, 2.5 rebounds and 4.7 assists, is expected to return "in the coming weeks." In Pack's stead Jalil Bethea should see more minutes at the one for the Hurricanes.

Scores team-high 17 points Pack amassed 17 points (4-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), two rebounds, five assists and one steal over 38 minutes during Thursday's 80-69 loss to Drake.
Impact Pack didn't have his best shooting performance Thursday, and his efforts were not enough to avoid Miami's shocking 11-point loss to Drake. Pack has been productive this season even if Miami has been stumbling a bit. The senior floor general has recorded at least 17 points and five assists in three of his four appearances, and in the one time he didn't, he recorded a season-high nine dimes. He's averaging 15.3 points, 6.3 assists and 2.8 rebounds per game to open the campaign.
NOVEMBER 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Hands out six dimes Pack recorded 17 points (6-13 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and six assists over 30 minutes during Sunday's 88-64 victory over Binghamton.
Impact Pack was the leading scorer for a Miami team that cruised to a 24-point win, but he also excellent in the assists department, where he was the leader as well. Pack should be one of Miami's most reliable offensive options all season long if he stays healthy.

Impact Pack has missed five out of the last six games for the Hurricanes, but will return as they face Boston College in the first round of the ACC tournament. The junior guard is averaging 13.1 points, 3.6 assists and 2.5 rebounds on 32.6 minutes per game this year, and his return should be an asset offensively for Miami as they hope to win and move on to the second round, where they would play Clemson on Wednesday.
