Sean Miller

Hot wives have been legal long time.

if Miller stays, that means Arizona has decided to roll with him long term - Archie back would be the perfect tonic and a much to obvious and sensible move by Arizona to do it, but if Miller long term was the choice, it would be a ballsy stroke of genius and a big f*ck u to the college basketball establishment.

Sean somehow getting his brother back on the bench and in the middle of the program would immediately increase his chances of getting back on track, laser focus back in on on basketball, and perhaps become what many thought he was truly destine to become several years ago - one of the winningest coaches of all time.

It's hard to imagine Archie survives losing 6 straight at Indiana. It's a massive buyout, but it seems like his time is up.

I can't come up with any reason why bringing Archie back would not be good. It's obviously a landing spot you think he'd consider, and it would mean we landed a top level coach and recruiter who's 100% in sync with our HC.

Looking back at the 2011 team, we made an Elite Eight with a 6'7, 6'7, 6'6 front line. Plus, Momo as our PG wasn't particularly traditional. That team was probably the best coached in the time I've been an Arizona fan.

What coach would leave?

2010-2011 to 2013-2014 were the healthiest years for the Arizona Basketball Program in the Sean Miller era - his brother Archie is a GIGANTIC reason why it was healthy during that time, and unhealthy after that time.

I dont get it, he left after 2011. He was here two years. I think he is a great assistant coach, but I would argue Pasternak contributed more to the program then Archie and actual results back that up.

Whoever's got to. If we get a chance at a guy like Archie, well, I feel like we've got to do what we've got to do.

Danny Peters could get a job as AHC/lead recruiter at just about any mid-tier program. I’m confident Sean could find him a new gig.

He seems the most logical. JET is a beloved guy completing his first year. Murphy is the most experienced.

Peters is young with an upwards trajectory. I agree that it wouldn't be odd for him to be a lead assistant at a midmajor immediately. He was a GA and directeor of basketball ops when Pasternack was here. Maybe reunite with Joe?

That was exactly my thought but I don’t know enough about their current assistant coaches.

We'll see. Part of me wonders if Indiana won't go soft on ponying up 10 mil and let Archie stay, rendering this meaningless.

Looking online UCSB has an AHC who came from Boise with Pasternack and got promoted to AHC before this year. Part of me wonders if Pasternack will be at UCSB when the wheel begins spinning, though, so I think there's a lot of dominos left. I could see Joe being in line for a decent P5 job.

One trip to the UCSB campus and it would be an easy decision to make. Especially if you are leaving Tucson in the summer when it's 105, and 75 in Goleta.

[Beachcat97]

Yeah. UCSB is a pretty sweet gig

[DrWildcat]

I guess since we are on the topic of Archie...

[Spaceman Spiff]

Yeah. UCSB is a pretty sweet gig

I'm still partial to Pepperdine.

[Merkin]

With $10M in his pocket he can work cheap too. Same with JeT, neither needs the piddly UA salary to live on.

I wonder if Archie's contract is written like Sumlin's and Sean's, where if he gets fired he needs to look for work to mitigate damages.

I half wonder if we could just find some random title to allow Archie to coach and recruit for us if we can't lose a current assistant.

He certainly doesn't need immediate $ at this point, which is a partial reason I think it's not unrealistic to think he'd come coach with Sean for 2 years.

This is my ideal scenario. Archie rejoins and helps us make a nice run next year. He then helps juice the 22 recruiting class and helps us have a big 22-23. Then, he's helped solidfy his brother and should have an open door to return as an HC to a decent program. He's still young, so there's nothing weird about that path, IMO.

We could bring him on as a minimally paid “consultant” but he wouldn’t be able to recruit or travel with the team. To my knowledge there’s no title other than Assistant that would allow Archie to participate in practices, sit on the bench during games, and recruit on our behalf.

[TheCat]

Think of the recruiting ties now added in the mid-west where Archie was living/working. Bet there are some that would follow Archie if Sean wanted them. Sean Miller can channel his inner Tombstone and declare " them em I'm coming and hells coming with me".

I know there are competition differences, but it's worth noting Lute's best 6 year run was .800% from 1997-2003. He had 3 regular season Pac titles during that run.

It's something I say often about Miller. Pre-FBI, he compared to Lute about as well as anyone could be expected to.

[ChooChooCat]

My guess is Jack would be the one to go to make room for Archie. He would have a soft landing. This isn’t inside info btw, just a prediction.

Apparently, you can’t even have players help recruit.

Juwan will be a great coach, there was no doubt in my mind he would work out.

I mean, I feel like if Archie is available and wants to return to Tucson, the rest will happen, it's just a question of how. I couldn't see us turning a guy with that resume who is also the HC's brother down.

Yeah. That’s going to be the understanding of 95%+ of the sports fan universe.

And it will be that way forever. ESPN decided they were going to destroy his name...and they did.

[TheCat]

ESPN better be a bit more careful because they now see the notice of allegations and there is no payment of player's listed. Sean is a public figure so bringing suit is not easy but if you print something that you should have known was false you are on shaky ground.
In all seriousness they have really ruined his reputation and damaged his value. How he handles it so well is remarkable because he is a fiery guy.

[SCCats]

Nothing is going to happen to ESPN.

They will never post any kind of retraction or correction.

Most likely they will keep lying about it, it the ways that they can. Forever.

Miller & Arizona won’t pursue it because Miller still has a job. The whole process of discovery isn’t worth it & the burden of proof will be on Miller.

However, one the IARP is settled and Miller is still our coach, I would enjoy him calling out specific people by name (Schlabach, Vitale, Bilas) for their egregious behavior and comments. They certainly deserve it—especially Vitale because he continues to be so vocal in spite of the situations at KU. Schlabach has basically admitted he was wrong by going silent on Twitter and refusing to back up his bullshit story. He printed a defense attorney’s wild allegations and presented it as fact, not knowing if any of the story was remotely true and then hid behind attribution to “an unnamed source.” Journalistically it’s as weak as you can get.
