Most 18 year olds don't want to move half way across the world for a year. They'd rather take some under the table payments and go through a semester and a half of school.If these kids just want money for a year before declaring for the NBA why dont they go play overseas? They would make way more than 100K.
Ayton will not play. Declared ineligible per ESPN.
I read it wrong. Sorry. Still eligible I guess.
From what I know they have a recording of a coach saying pay him. I don’t know that they have evidence of a player receiving money yet.
Big difference.
Be kind of surprised if Miller ever coaches another game there.
Anywhere period. He was buying talent and still couldn’t make a final four.I would be surprised if any division 1 schools take a chance on him.
I would be surprised if he ever coaches another college game anywhere.Be kind of surprised if Miller ever coaches another game there.
Bruce Pearl?Given that I think Sean Miller is an absolute POS slimeball, I really hope you are all correct. But I have my doubts, having seen similar situations in which a coach is welcomed back to the sport as if nothing happened.
Looks like it was a false report. But, I'm sure it's just a matter of time. And, I'm sure he's not the only coach.Miller fired
Pearl is one example. Eddie Sutton is an all-timer. Larry Brown also cheated at every stop and was still treated as a god because he gave Danny Manning's dad an assistant coaching job.Bruce Pearl?

Yeah, good point. Eddie Sutton's kid also got a head coaching job he was totally unqualified for when Daddy got s---faced and crashed his SUV. Then a few years later Eddie pretended to coach the University of San Francisco so he could get his 800th win.Jerry Tarkanian whose son Danny has parleyed daddy's cheating into a job as dirty politician.
Interesting position Arizona took on this.
Yeah, I saw a tweet where UA is going to end up being on the hook for something like $16.5M for Miller and Rich Rodriguez when both were fired for cause.They made a few interesting decisions: Sean Miller’s contract, as written, somehow pays him more for getting fired with cause than without cause.
These teams probably figure that the NCAA will do their usual SGT Schultz "I KNOW NOTHING" routine or that if the NCAA finally does do something, they will have to vacate wins from the whole season any way. So may as well play them.Sounds like pretty much every current player who has been implicated has been ruled eligible.
A pipedream for sureThe next head coach at Arizona will be Luke Walton, or Steve Kerr
