Miller?

Vizor Sports reporting a deal is in place. Just saw it on Facebook.
There's no insider info on this board?
Uva has reported that Miller had dinner tonight at Halls with USC officials. A deal is close.
Is that a subscription only site? Their public page doesn't say anything about it - except the Mike Uva tweet earlier this evening.
I don't know. I only saw a quotation someone posted on Facebook. It might have been the image of a Tweet.
Oh well, didn’t have the stones to go for Marshall. Better than the Furman guy though.
I think the stones to go after Miller equal the stones required to pursue Marshall. I wish Tark the Shark had been out there so we could really test these stones.
If he didn’t finish his meal at Halls Chophouse, he’s leaving SEC money on the table…literally.
What he was "busted" for is now legal essentially, so not a worry for us IMO
I’ve been hollering for us to hire a known cheater for years. Could it finally be about to happen?!
Miller or Marshall. Time to drop our PC and get a little dirty for a change.
Right after they gave him the prices of the steaks, no doubt.
Actually, Uva retracted that on Twitter.
I’d take Jerry Tarkanian, Charley Pell, Chad Knaus, and the early 80s SMU board of trustees all at once if it meant we won big & won often.
A few memorable years followed by a few quiet ones on probation. It would be far more entertaining.
I say bring him on.. We have nothing to lose and he is an expert in paying players, we need him...
He is currently the subject of a reported investigation related to the 2017 NCAA basketball corruption scandal regarding offers to illegally pay athletes for attending his school, including 2017 recruit and future #1 2018 NBA Draft pick Deandre Ayton.[20] On February 24, 2018, Miller would not be allowed to coach the upcoming game against Oregon, with coaching instead going to Lorenzo Romar that game.[21] On March 1, Miller denied any allegations against him and was reinstated as Arizona's head coach.[22]
Miller began his 10th season as the Arizona head coach during the 2018–2019 season. After a victory against UTEP, Miller recorded his 250th win for Arizona (370th win overall), in only 324 games, which is the 5th fastest of any coach at any Division 1 program all-time.[23] Arizona ended the season 17−15, missing the NCAA tournament for only the 2nd time in the previous 34 seasons.
Miller would enter his 11th season at Arizona with yet another top 5 recruiting class & preseason ranked #21 in the AP poll. After defeating Wake Forest to win the Wooden Legacy, Arizona began the season 9−0. With a win over USC on February 6, Miller would win his 400th game in only 542 games, which was 22nd fastest.[24]
After 12 seasons as head coach, Miller was fired by Arizona on April 7, 2021.[25]
That’s just it. Arizona FIRED a coach who was operating at a very high level. They obviously knew some things we don’t know
Bad look from Uva. Did he get played or did he say something that he shouldn't have?
I'm pretty sure he took the word of someone on the internet who said they were a manager at Halls and claimed to have seen Miller there with Tanner and other USC officials.
That's the same thing I think of anytime I hear mention of Murray St.
Twitter scuttlebutt is that we got spurned and Ray didn't want to look like a loser. As if...
Of course, Twitter is a hotbed of half-thruths and conspiracy theories.
I like Uva. Seems to be a sincere, honest dude.
Uva retracted his Twitter post and apologized. Now they are saying it never happened (Miller was not in Columbia and he was not at Halls Chop House) and they are still interviewing. Bob Richey and Dennis Gates are at the top of the list. I'm not even sure Sean Miller is on the list.
Confusion has been sown by irresponsibility. I'll continue to hope for Miller until there's no reason for hoping. I KNOW what his capabilities are.
