The Hurricanes got to a hot start, going 11–2 in their first 13 games. Highlights of the streak included wins over Georgia and Kansas State at the Baha Mar Bahamas Hoops Championship and two conference wins over Notre Dame and sixteenth-ranked Clemson. They were ranked as highly as eighth when they lost to Kentucky in the ACC–SEC Challenge. Their fortunes turned as they lost four of their next five ACC games, with the lone win coming against Virginia Tech. They won three of their next four and had a record of 6–5 in ACC play before they lost their final ten games in a row. They played three ranked teams in that time, losing to third-ranked North Carolina by only three points, eighth ranked Duke, and again to North Carolina, who was ranked ninth at the time. Miami also struggled on the road, only winning two of their ten ACC road games.

The Hurricanes finished the 2023–24 season a disappointing 15–17 and 6–14 in ACC play to finish in fourteenth place. As the fourteenth seed in the ACC tournament, they lost to eleventh seed Boston College in the First Round. They were not invited to the NCAA tournament or the NIT. This ended a streak of two straight post-season appearances for the Hurricanes.
