If this is true, I don’t want him. Tell him to fuck off and go to Texas. Zero reason to keep being the abused wifeQuote:

Leaving after a sweet 16 run and barely sneaking in on year 3? Not the best way to roll IMO.
Anyone remember when Fran frashilla was at SJU and he interviewed somewhere and SJU fired him for it? I’m kinda there
Yeah seems like it would be an awkward return at this point for Miller if things fell apart at Texas. I'm sure its just a matter of time until he is announced as their coach but in the rare possibility it falls apart, I'm not sure I even want him back at this point. Unless it could be proven this was all BS and he listened but said no but it seems like that would be hard and some damage has been done.
Looks like a Flexjet from Austin is scheduled to land a Lunken this afternoon. Hopefully clarity one way or the other happens soon.Quote:

NIL commitments are as big apart of coaches negotiations in taking or remaining in a job as their salaries. If Xavier still has FF aspirations, at a minimum, we have to commit to providing the same resources UCONN and Nova are committing. Otherwise it is all a pipedream.
Here are my thoughts:
1. I thought that this season Miller “mailed it in” more than his prior 2 return seasons at X.
2. Xavier saved his career by hiring him after his Arizona termination. Miller owed Xavier more than 3 years for Saint his @ss.
3. I have believed that Miller is a good coach but not elite.
4. The way Miller has left Xavier is a reflection of his overall character.
5. If Miller does not want to be at Xavier then get someone with enthusiasm who wants to be.
6. My second favorite mens basketball team is now whatever team is playing against Texas.
I think Sean is a clown for leaving again especially this early. I think you can question if he’s just a very good coach or a great coach. But I don’t think you can question if he mailed it in this year. They needed to win there last 7 games to make the tournament. The team was awful the first 2.5 months and ended up making the tournament still. I’d say far from mailing it in.
After the portal opens today,will we even have a player on the roster? I don't know if any players will follow Miller to Texas.They're not loyal to the school or coach anymore.They'll go to where the money is.Xavier is like the Reds and Texas is the Dodgers.It's just not a level playing field .
This needs to be made official one way or the other today. As of a few hours ago, it wasn't done. It better be for Xavier's sake by this afternoon either way. Once it happens, we better have someone lined up whether it be Mack or someone else, and that needs to be done in a couple of days.
There is zero time for poking around. Make a decision and do it quickly.
Personally, I think Miller is making a bad decision....one, hes overrated and Texas has sky high expectations even though it is playing second fiddle to football. Hope he rots and gets canned.
