Good look to CSM. Will always appreciate what he did at Arizona and the respect he showed to our program.

Will root for him to succeed.

Between now and the beginning of his success there they will hate on him the way we did Tommy. Then they'll like him.

They're more than stoked, they're about to build a statue.

I doubt Miller could ever be successful at Xavier

Totally right, that board is over the moon. And the really don’t mention anything about his previous run. It’s all forward looking

Captain Obvious · Post by **Captain Obvious** » Sat Mar 19, 2022 3:05 pm

I'm thankful Miller left a full cupboard. We wouldn't be 32-3 and heading into the second round of the NCAA tournament without Miller's hard work and dedication. I'm guilty of judging him too harshly with no real evidence. I didn't always agree with his coaching style but who cares. It won a lot of games and revived the program when it was floundering. I wish him the very best back at Xavier and will root for him unless Xavier is playing the Cats. A sincere thank you to Coach Sean Miller for all he did for us.

I vote no. Our president undermined and then fired Sean Miller. He put together the foundation for our great season. He'd still be here if he could. So, it's a special circumstance deserving special dispensation. Sean Miller is not an arch rival.

Happy for Miller, happy to see fanbase happy to have Miller. I wasn’t done rooting for him.

I’m thrilled for him, but I’m going to miss his podcasts.

Move Ricky Bobby and Heeke to arch rivals. Miller stays

If only the ref didn't call a bullshit charging call against Nick Johnson against Wisconsin.

All of a sudden Xavier is my second favorite team.

Alieberman · Post by **Alieberman** » Sat Mar 19, 2022 3:56 pm

Should we all get on Xavier message boards and explain to them what kind of coach they are getting?

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Sat Mar 19, 2022 3:57 pm

So glad to have a Big East team I can now root for.

As they say in Cinci....Go X!

BBQ wildcat · Post by **BBQ wildcat** » Sat Mar 19, 2022 3:57 pm

I tried to register for their message board and got a message that my email address was banned. Probably because it has "tucson" as part of it.

Ha!

I think they may already have an idea of who Sean Miller is!

Should Miller explain to them how to Properly pronounce “Xavier”, now that he spent so long in Tucson?
Ah-vee-air

Wonder if she’ll like South Carolina more than RichRod’s wife?
That came out wrong.

OK, Amy misses grass yards instead of gravel/desert and something about allergies blah, blah, blah...

Taking Xavier over ntU$C sounds like Amy had a big part in the decision.

I’m sure Sean would love him back but I bet there are head coach gigs out there for him.

JMarkJohns · Post by **JMarkJohns** » Sat Mar 19, 2022 4:27 pm

I already dropped my Twitter thread in the Xavier thread updating on Miller being prime candidate this morning, and, well, we are now all best friends.

Never thought I’d find a non-Arizona program to like in college basketball especially not this late in life.

Sometimes one school’s treated like trash is another school’s treated like treasure.

Good for Sean. Archie as assistant. You just got the head coaches of Indiana and Arizona.

From today’s press conference (and honestly, why is this the first question someone asked these guys?):

Earlier today Sean Miller was announced that he was taking the Xavier job. Your thoughts on your former coach getting a new opportunity?

DALEN TERRY: Man, that's great for him. We're all proud of him. He was proud of us everything we did this year. I've spoken to him numerous times. That's just real good for him. I mean, he had a year off. Now he's back to coaching again. He's going to be smiling, I'm happy to see him happy again.

AZUOLAS TUBELIS: Coach Miller, he taught us a lot of things and Xavier is lucky to have him.

Seconded. If nothing else, he's an arch rival for Tommy on the recruiting trail. And he'll muddy the waters for us at every turn to get the same recruits we're after, because that's the name of the game. And while I won't blame him for it, I certainly won't be here singing his praises either.

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Sat Mar 19, 2022 5:06 pm

I don't think Arizona and Xavier typically recruit the same players.

prh · Post by **prh** » Sat Mar 19, 2022 5:12 pm

I don't think we'll be having many recruiting battles with Xavier. If nothing else, differing styles of play

Let's keep the thread in here a little longer, not everyone is going to see this news right away. I know, crazy, but I imagine there's at least 1 or 2 people who aren't on this board every minute of the day. Maybe.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Sat Mar 19, 2022 5:12 pm

I won’t speak for other mods, but I’m not moving this thread anywhere.

Sean Miller didn’t take some other job and break our hearts. My dude was FUCKED OVER. He got just as raw a deal as the players and fans last year, if not much worse.

He’s not my arch-rival. And he will always be a Wildcat in my mind. If others disagree, someone put up a poll thread and let’s vote.

Lando05 · Post by **Lando05** » Sat Mar 19, 2022 5:19 pm

Happy he has landed on his feet he deserves another chance. Glad he left the program full of talent for Tommy. I will root for Xavier as long as they don't play us.
