First, the news:
Reports indicate that Miller’s contract is for six years. That’s obviously a big deal, as Miller is looking to rehabilitate not only a program but also his own reputation. Miller left Xavier for Arizona some 13 years ago. In his time at Arizona, he ran afoul of the authorities, ultimately prompting his release from that school. Now he’s back at the first big job he had with his sights set on proving that he’s capable of winning on the up-and-up.
Despite that, many Xavier fans saw Miller as the only hire that makes the program’s mutually agreeing to part ways with Travis Steele in the middle of the NIT make sense.
