Word of a possible NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 match-up between Xavier and Arizona first started to waft through the Musketeers' post-game locker room celebration Saturday.
Xavier head coach Chris Mack was basking in the glow of a 91-66 victory over Florida State but he scowled when asked about the prospect of dueling with mentor, friend and Arizona head coach Sean Miller.
"It stinks. It really does because he means so much to me. He's taught me so much about what to do and how to be a coach," Mack said Saturday of the impending match-up.
