Ole Miss Leaves A Lane for Miami’s First Road Win Since January 2024 in ACC/SEC Challenge
For the first time since Jan. 24, 2024, the Miami Hurricanes (7-2) have won a road game, and it comes when the ACC needed it most against the Ole Miss Rebels (5-3), defeating them 75-66.
Not only was this a massive win for the program, but it was also a wake-up game for one of the Hurricanes’ star players.
However, Miami started the game poorly. Five quick minutes and five quick turnovers stifled the Canes in the early goings against the Rebels. It was sloppy both ways with questionable fouls and non-calls all the same, but soon the Hurricanes started to settle in.
It started with Shelton Henderson. The five-star freshman has been rechallenged time and time again by head coach Jai Lucas to take that step to be the player that he needed to be, and against the Rebels, his sleeper agent activated.
He crashed the boards, attacked the rim, and even chirped back and forth with some of the students in the Pavilion in Oxford, Miss. He did everything he could to have a career night, and he did.
Henderson finished with a career-high 18 points, nearing a double-double with nine rebounds, five assists, and two monster blocks in response to the nagging Rebels faithful. He was just the Energizer Bunny for the Canes, as his energy was passed around like the 15 total assists the team had.
That sparked the Hurricanes to flex their offensive capabilities in the first half, shooting 8-15 from beyond the arc, sparking the Rebels in every area of the game. Moreover, defensively was where the Canes made their money.
After the win over Ole Miss, Miami has jump in KenPom from No. 46 to No. 38, now has a top 20 defense in the country and projected to go 22-9.

As the season goes on, the country will get so used to what Tru Washington is doing that his defensive performances will become numbing. Jai Lucas challenged him to be one of the best defensive guards in the country, and he took it to heart.
Washington finished the game second in scoring with 17 points, seven rebounds, and three steals. Tre Donaldson also played outstandingly, leaning more into his leadership role as a guard, guiding this team to victory.
What was better was that they didn’t need Malik Reneau to score 20 points to win. UM’s big man finished with 15 points, six rebounds, three stocks, but had four of those five early turnovers in the opening minutes. He eventually settled, as did the team.
The Hurricanes will now return home to face Southern Miss in another out of conference matchup on Dec. 6.

“Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta” star Tommie Lee among 6 arrested during World Cup match in Miami, sheriff says
Reality television personality Tommie Lee — whose real name is Atasha Jefferson — best known for her appearances on “Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta,” was among six people arrested during the England vs. Norway FIFA World Cup match in Miami on Saturday, according to the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office.
The sheriff’s office said 60,024 fans attended the match. Deputies also reported 19 ejections from the stadium, adding that all incidents were isolated and handled quickly.
Authorities have not yet released the circumstances surrounding Jefferson’s arrest or any charges she may face.
A social media account that regularly reports celebrity news claimed Sunday that Jefferson was arrested July 11 and released July 12 after posting a $1,000 bond. The post also alleged she is facing a felony charge of interference with a sporting or entertainment event and said she later shared a video on Snapchat appearing to be in good spirits after her release.
What we don’t know
CBS News has not independently verified those claims, including the reported charge, bond amount or release information, and Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office has not publicly confirmed those details.
CBS News has also not independently verified what led to the encounter, and the sheriff’s office has not said what prompted deputies to take Jefferson into custody.
CBS News has requested Jefferson’s arrest report, booking information and any charging documents from the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office. A request for comment has also been sent to Jefferson’s representatives.
Reality TV star’s legal troubles in South Florida amid World Cup festivities
Jefferson rose to national prominence as one of the breakout personalities on “Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta” before later appearing on several Zeus Network reality series, where she has remained a frequent cast member.
This is not Jefferson’s first legal issue in South Florida. In 2024, she was arrested in Miami Beach on a battery charge following an incident outside LIV Nightclub. Court records from that case alleged she physically confronted another person before officers took her into custody.
Saturday’s arrest comes as Miami continues hosting FIFA World Cup matches that have drawn tens of thousands of fans from around the world. Despite the arrests and ejections, the sheriff’s office said the event proceeded safely and described the incidents as isolated.
This is a developing story. CBS News will update this article as additional information, including the exact circumstances surrounding Jefferson’s arrest and any charges, becomes available.
