Anyone have some sort of media (GIF, YouTube clip, Vine, etc) of Sean Miller giving a player the double "you -- sit down" motion with both hands?

I want to say I recall it happening after a turnover coming out of a timeout. I want to say the player the motion was intended for was Josiah Turner. I also want to say Miller mouthed "You. Sit the f*** down." whilst gesturing. But, alas, I couldn't say all those things without an attributable source.

Similar to one of these, but with both hands:


Slim to none chance, I know. But, of anywhere, I figure, this is the best place to ask.

Give me all of your rep.

Oh wait...

Thank you. You can have all my rep. My rep power is over 9000, so...no big deal.

He did it to Parrom btw.

Can we confirm this? I could have sworn that he was talking to Mayes and his lack of effort. This would be Mayes' first year. And he walked down the bench with his high socks and sat very quietly. Parrom was always high intensity and don't recall Miller ever really getting mad at him.

Also, remember Miller's first or second year and someone was mocking him in the huddle and it was caught on camera? I could have sworn that was Mayes too, but maybe Turner? It was pretty funny. Remember thinking just wait until Miller gets this tape.

Yes, it was Parrom. He took a quick shot at one end and then made it worse by not getting back on defense which led to an easy basket.

I love our coach.

I remember that game. It was two years ago. We were playing at Oregon. That game ended up being our first loss of the season.

Yup. 100 percent Parrom. Which was shocking. Coach ain't f'ing around. There's plenty of bench over there. If you can't figure shit out, go grab some.

lol. For reals.

I feel like he's used the bench when guys f up more than ever this season. Reminds me of Mr. Quick Hook Vintage Lute. Ok maybe I shouldn't go that far. Anybody remember those days. Use to kill me. One mistake, just one and you were outta there.

OH, you know what game I'm thinking about.

I think it was Mayes first year, and think we were at Oregon State. Mayes made a lazy play and Miller did something like (hard to describe on a board)...

"Go, go, go, go, go, go, go to the end of the bench" Very sarcastic, almost like a happy smirky tone, moving his hands toward the end of the bench.

Does that ring a bell?

PS - yea, regarding that gif, some kids can't handle the tough love. See Grant.

Big difference between mistakes made while playing aggressive and mistakes from aloofness or lack of execution. The latter will find you on the bench in a heartbeat with Miller. Which is fair.

The best part about all of this is that KP & Coach were as close as any player he's had here (from what I'm told). They love each other. Good stuff.
