    If it’s true, X certainly isn’t going to officially break the story. The only one who can officially say it’s not true is Sean. Two possibilities. One, it’s a done deal and everyone is staying quiet. Two, there is an offer from Texas, but Sean hasn’t signed it and is trying to negotiate for more from X. I think NIL money is the issue and we just can’t compete unless the phones of all the wealthy X alumni are ringing off the hook asking for big buck commitments today (doubtful). We don’t have enough multi millionaire / billionaire support.

    Golf is a relatively simple game, played by reasonably intelligent people, stupidly.

    At this point it’ll be Texas making the “official” announcement.

    The leaks to the media are already done.

    I hope so. Can’t stand either of them to be honest. Bring back Shannon.

    Many of you are optimistic that Xavier can hire a new coach and be at the top of the Big East. If Sean Miller’s leaves for Texas he likely concluded that Xavier lacks the NIL resources necessary to compete at that level and make deep NCAA Tournament runs.

    If true, this move sends a clear message to any potential new hire: the financial backing needed to build and sustain an elite roster simply isn’t there. Miller knows the program inside and out, and if he didn’t see a viable path forward in the current NIL landscape, why would another top-tier coach? His exit signals that Xavier’s ceiling may be lower than many hoped, making the next hire even more challenging. And if Miller guts the roster the next two years start a new era of rebuilding.

    Sure except that any coach we hire will get a lot more $$$ at Xavier than at his current school. Texas has more money than Xavier - absolutely true. But Xavier has tons more money than Charleston or Akron or fill in the blank school that our new coach comes from.

    I agree, and let’s be honest here, both years Sean took us to the tournament we lost 1 of our best big men both seasons. So I still feel we can compete. IMO. It might take a down year next year who knows we will see

    If so that’s laughable. Greg Christopher is a fucking joke along with MORE XAVIER HANYCZ
