Sean Miller + Xavier

[Hi-Low]

Miller will follow the money

Just like his recruits.

And the money will follow Miller. He is a total scumbag. Xavier should look elsewhere.

He better invest in some breathable, quick dry apparel if he’s going to the SEC.

It will be interesting to see what his recruiting is like wherever he lands. I don’t know if you’ve heard, but some have alleged that he’s had some questionable practices in the past.

With NIL that’s basically irrelevant

Now he can recruit like a god. Just needs local businesses to play middle man.

That’s what this is all about

Nothing to see here

Is it? The guys that played that fast and loose before had an upper hand because they were willing to bend the rules and risk what ended up happening. Now they don’t have that much of a recruiting advantage. It also very much depends on the school and NIL availability.

I just meant the fast and loose is basically irrelevant

You just get a middleman and it’s now legal

 

[aburks41]

I like the hire. The big east having more villains is good

 

[Ts5034]

He will recruit very well, he will win a lot of games, take Xavier to the NCAA Tournament, and It would not surprise me if he leaves again for a bigger job in 3-4 years after he proves himself again. But, It’s a good thing for the league if Miller turns Xavier into an annual tournament team. Now, let’s see what Shaheen Holloway can do at Seton Hall.

This is going to be a very interesting off season/recruiting season for the Big East.

Replacing Steele and Willard with Miller and Holloway is about as good as you could hope for

Yeah definitely evens the playing field somewhat.

Find it very hard to believe large amounts of cheating—both within the context of nil or outside of it— will stop.

Along those lines, our #1 off-season priority should be selling our soul for a couple guard playmakers.

Miller is a clear upgrade and I don’t think Willard was really all that great anyways. Hope this Holloway guy (assuming he takes it) works out for them.

I wonder if the FBI will investigate how Tammy's Dog Walking could afford a $100K NIL deal with Miller recruits.

Yes, but if everyone is doing it because it’s legal, it’s not nearly the advantage for the folks that were doing it when it wasn’t legal.

 

[gtcam]

Miller should NEVER be allowed to coach NCAA again

Imagine how baffling it would be for Holloway to turn down the chance to be the head coach at his Alma Mater in order to stay at the "hardest job in the MAAC," where he makes $250k/year and coaches in a glorified high school gym. I guess stranger things have happened, but seems like it would be a mortal lock, assuming Hall makes the offer.

Miller back at Xavier will be fun. He should do good things for them, and he will instantly be the most hate-able coach in the league. True villain.

Sean Miller would be awesome for the Big East conference, and anyone who says otherwise is wrong. The dude can coach.
I don't care if he's a scumbag. I love having scumbags in our conference, as long as it's not us.

Yup, part of what made the old Big East great was its group of high profile coaches, many of whom were easy to hate.

Hate to break it to you but Hurley is that guy. Every fanbase in the league hates him. Threatening to fight fans and complaining about the refs after games - he is so obnoxious
