Yesterday the Xavier basketball coach, Sean Miller, announced he is leaving for Texas. He was previously the Xavier coach and left for Arizona. He got in trouble at Arizona, and at least one of his guys did prison time. He left, disgraced, but Xavier took him back despite his parting comment that he was going from a Buick to a Lexus.  Now he is leaving AGAIN for a bigger school.

 

Yep, I’m done. It’s not just Miller leaving again, it’s also the portal and NIL. They have killed a sport I used to love.  Xavier used to be my second team after the Bills. Now? Screw it all……


Richard pitino is a solid hire. Are you ready to un-quit Xavier?!

I’m in wait and see mode. All of college basketball is going to hell with the portal and trying to raise NIL money. Why should I have to come out of pocket to buy/rent some guys to play for my team for a year?  I don’t begrudge the players mobility or compensation, I just don’t like resulting product.

 

We used to be proud that every guy who finished his eligibility left with a degree. Now? I don’t even know who half these mercenaries are.

totally agree. I also think it is worse in college bball than football. Maybe because the rosters are smaller

and the NIL money is less overall than football, but i feel NIL is ruining bball more than football.
