So carry on with the circle jerk.
Look, I see it like this. People are asking what we should do.

We should fire Robbins and Heeke and get someone to beg Miller to come back and hope he says yes. If he says no, at least our new coach search won't be led by Robbins and Heeke.

That's what we should do. It's not realistic or possible, but that doesn't mean it isn't what we should do.

That solution doesn't even involve a time machine and not firing Miller in the first place, which is the answer to what we should have done.

I don’t know if I’ve disliked a non-impact player more that Pastner ever. I’m trying to think over the last 4 decades and I think I despise him the most.

Maybe cause I was at school when he was, but it is my go-to question when I meet alum friends. “Thoughts on pastner?”

If I walk away you answered incorrectly.

Administrators who are really good at hiring great coaches know basketball. They know the sport. That's what CM Newton was at Kentucky. He knew the sport and knew who he could pick up the phone and talk to. That's why Newton made offers to Lute Olson not once, but twice. Newton was a former coach himself and understood who was successful and why they were successful.

Robbins is not an expert in this field -- and it's really insulting he's trying to do this. How would he feel if someone without a medical degree decided to walk into an operating room to perform open heart surgery.

It's an insult to Lute Olson and Fred Snowden that Robbins even has a say in this whole process. And it's even more insulting that the local media turns a blind eye to this. Arizona should have a competent athletic director at the helm, not a lap dog. That athletic director should have his shit together to make a well informed hire. Lord knows there's enough bureaucrats within the athletic department to carry on the day to day bullshit. Mike Candrea doesn't need Dave Heeke. Dave Rubio doesn't need Heeke. Adia Barnes doesn't need Heeke. Nor does Jay Johnson. These coaches want to be left alone to do the jobs they were hired to do.

What the fuck is Heeke's job? To fly to games and cheerlead? Is that why he's being paid more than $700k/year?
A competent AD is there to ensure the money making sports are making money and to hire the best people possible in those positions. This is the most important hire in the entire department. The most important position. You can have a ho-hum school president. And even a ho-hum AD as long as that AD can do one thing very good -- and that's hire a really good head basketball coach.

What the hell is this guy even around for? To go on Rich Herrera's radio show and promote Arizona athletics?

I'm going to show the whole anti-miller crowd how it felt for just about 3-4 years. I will personally go out of my way to talk shit about our new coach.

Here's how a healthy leadership structure works.

A good president hires a solid AD, then lets the AD do his thing without intervening.

A good AD hires a good basketball coach, then lets the coach do his thing.

The president and AD support their programs. Support does not equal micromanaging and dictating the direction. If a coach is succeding, they get to do it their way. If a coach fails, then they get fired and replaced with someone better.

Our leadership structure is the Daniel Snyder/Jerry Jones model, where the overall leader thinks he knows too much and isn't letting the people under him execute their jobs without intervention. So instead of people who are executing their professional work, you get an unqualified micromanager with a bloated ego directing things.

I don't know. It took a HOF coach to create what we look at as Arizona basketball, and that was a very different era in terms of player movement and roster stability.

I'm not totally saying it isn't possible to recover from a hit these days, but HOF level coaches aren't commonly available and this era has unprecedented challenges for coaches.

1st, I actually attended more than 1 Ben Lindsey coached game at McKale. 2nd, I think society has mostly moved on from going to games in person like we saw in the Olson era so I'm not sure how easy it will be to replicate that success. I hope I'm wrong and that we get a coach to lead us to the promise land but I have my doubts. Like I said, these guys are playing with fire and I hope they realize that they need to get their shit together and make a good hire

I mean I look at UCLA. They arguably had the best coach ever. They had the greatest dynasty ever. And I wouldn't say they've been consistently the banner carrier for the pac12 over the past 30 years. That's been us. They've had final fours and maybe even an NC, can't recall. They've been maybe as good as us, if you compare resumes. But really it was UA/Furd, then UA/UCLA with some UA/UW and UA/UO mixed in. Right? And that's in part because we've had two major eras. Lute/Miller. They've had 11 coaches in that time frame it seems.

So what I'm saying is that even UCLA, which is a blue blood, is in California, has the love of the conference and the love of the media and the love of the refs and everything going for it, had the best coach ever and the best history ever, and even they haven't been back to greatness in a consistent enough way like I'd want for us.

If they can't just get back on top like it's no big deal, then how hard is it going to be for us?

We feared we might become irrelevant after Lute. Maybe it was only while we had him. But Miller saw something in the fanbase and the passion of the community and made it work, blending old with new and it was as good as you can ask for in that situation.

And now... Man. I don't know. Maybe now all the "it was nice while it lasted" fears I had for the "what will happen when Lute retired" threads are going to have to be dusted off.

It's not something to take for granted, especially when you aren't kansas, kentucky, duke, ucla.

Remember how Maryland was always relevant. Georgetown? We won't be the first team to drop out of relevancy. We'd be lucky to have a UCLA style 20-30 years. And that's so much less than I expect for us.

I do and had to live through it.

People, it was so bad you could actually move from your bad cheap seat at McKale to one closer to the court. You could hear sneakers squeak for God’s sake.

It actually could be worse now that I think about it.

Lindsey was before my time (think I was 1 when he left) but agreed. The modern era...it's more challenging than it was in the 80's. Good players leave for the pros, players transfer much more, it's a tough landscape.

Heck, this year we might have been captained by a senior Deandre Ayton if this was the 80's. Mannion, Akinjo, Green, Tubelis and Ayton could have won a few games as a starting lineup.

Totally agree on fan support too. Live sporting events are a declining market right now. Arizona basketball has great fan support, but you can't take it for granted. The winning stops, well, soon we'll have LA type traffic preventing more than 9,000 people from getting to McKale.

If you guys want to do a "Thank You Sean Miller" billboard in Tucson I'd put money towards it.

The Alumni Association might be the better group to lead this, but I'm not in touch with them.

Likewise, there may be other groups to involve.

But we can do it ourselves too. Get a nice classy graphic and keep it simple and straightforward.

Looks like we need to gather about $4K to get a billboard in Tucson.

I'm in too. Miller has always been classy and has taken the high road when most of us would be screaming and yelling.
He loves the school, the program and the fans.

So you don’t need the link? :lol:

Arizona basketball shouldn’t be hiring coaches who are just getting their feet wet and yet here we are.

Yeah, but I mean, the other side of the spin is that I have as many wins as a college HC as the guy we just hired.

It's a gigantic unknown. We certainly did not get a proven guy.

I agree with you, but Arizona is in a weird period right now. The NCAA crap and poor leadership taints it all. In normal circumstances Arizona could just ask just about any coach and they'd come right over. Hopefully we'll get back there in due time.
