    Sean Miller

    Is he staying? If he leaves I think that tells us everything we need to know. 1.) about him. 2.) ability of our program to compete in this era. 3.) where our expectations really should be.

    I’m not confident in our leadership at the top. So I wouldn’t be surprised. Gc is crap who has been there way too long and failed up. Never made a good hire his entire career outside of Sean falling into his lap. We shall see what happens.

    I would say Sean can be “selective” at this point in his coaching career. I think he would have possibly jumped to Indiana if that position did not get filled already. However, Indiana fans already tried the “Miller” route with Archie and that did not work out. I think if a true Blue Blood opening comes available, then he will take it. I would not blame him. He already tried Arizona and had decent results. Just my two cents.

    Obvious rumors about Texas. I think it’s a spot he would like. He was very much interested after beard left. I don’t think it’s quite the same now, but there is chatter. Is it to get more resources from X or is he actually interested again?

    Coaches really want the SEC. I think it’s a complete toss up, but with the portal opening Monday I expect to know by the end of Sunday what Texas is doing

    I’d prefer that he stays for continuity reasons. But if he goes, freaking do it NOW, and then let’s get someone in here in a matter of days.

    You just cannot go an extended period of time without a coach in this day and age with a roster in limbo and the portal as such an easy option

    I would be surprised if Sean goes to Texas but if he goes, he got us a Sweet Sixteen and an amazing victory over Texas and got the program back on track after Steele.

    You mentioned on another thread that “ your Guy” said Sean was leaving. If he knew that I assume he knew why?

    Agreed. Let’s move quick one way or the other. In the portal era, the change isn’t really as bad. I’d never be as comfortable about a potential change. But we can’t let it last long. If Miller is coach at Texas by Monday- Xavier needs a coach within a week

    I really really really hope that Sean stays.

    I agree 100%. My interest has been waning for a few years with the portal and NIL. If he left (again) it might just be the last straw.

    I'm not convinced how "back on track" the program is. Better, certainly, but compared to what? Tin Man years, yes. Pre-tin. No.

    Barely squeaking into the tournament with the veteran line-up (seemingly playing their best ball at the right time) then laying a complete turn in round one against a 6 seed...

    Maybe Illinois will go on and make a lot of teams look as bad as they made X look.

    2026 is going to be a very important year for this program and going into the off-season is going to tell us a lot about the "track".
    I don't always drink beer, but when I do, I drink 2XS.
