I wonder if they've already decided on the replacement and want to lock him in before the carousel is up to full speed.
2021-22 College Hoops Coaching Carousel
That might very well be the case.
This is what I was thinking as well. They want to shoot their shot with someone who might be close to accepting a different offer.
Digging deep into the war chest is probably discouraging several schools from trying to make a run to poach Underwood this year and the coming years.
Open jobs - Xavier, Missouri, Florida, South Carolina, U Mass LSU
Florida would have highest expectations since they have made NCCA 5 of past 7 years.
Xavier has been proving ground for many coaches
Pete Gillen 6/9 NCAA -> Providence
Skip Prosser 4/7 NCAA -> Wake Forest
Thad Matta 3/3 NCAA -> Ohio State
Sean Miller 4/5 NCAA -> AZ
Chris Mack 5/5 NCAA> Louisville
Larry Steele 0/4 NCAA fired
If I was young up and coming coach I would think the Xavier would be best chance of success. However I am sure Florida and LSU would pay more money.
Missouri needs to hire somebody with pre Illinois profile like Brad Underwood and be patient.
Florida can chase the next hot young coach. Mike White was not a failure - just decided to leave.
LSU will pay big bucks for somebody to come in.

Word I got was that Miller has offer from SC on the table… Used it as leverage to get Xavier to make the move sooner. He wants to be at Xavier.

I could see LSU trying to poach somebody like Nate Oates from Bama.
Which Miller? They might be both collecting unemployment right now. My guess it is Sean then Archie is still jobless.

I think I read about Archie and Rhode Island somewhere yesterday............. I really really think I did....................................
I think you did too.
Sources: URI closes in on A. Miller as next coach
Rhode Island has targeted former Indiana coach Archie Miller to be its next coach, sources told ESPN, which would signify a return to the Atlantic 10 for Miller, 43, who authored a successful tenure as coach at Dayton for six seasons.
Rhode Island is about right for Archie. I don't think Xavier will want him.I think you did too.

I’m certain that I do.
Other famous Millers
Reggie Miller (would be useful to our team playing)
Cheryl Miller (sister)
Shannon Miller (Olympic gymnast)
Mike Miller (long NBA career see Reggie)
Arthur Miller (playwright, married to Marilyn Monroe
Honestly I am not sure I would hire any to coach my basketball team.

Since Arthur Miller is dead, I think that's a definite rule out.
There's Ralph Miller, former coach of Iowa, that led the Squawks to a 100+ point per game average in 1970. Sadly, also deceased.

I mean, Cheryl Miller is one of the greatest female basketball players of all time (way better than Reggie was) and a former coach/GM of the Phoenix Mercury. Not that I think she should be hired by anyone as I believe she's retired, but you could obviously do way, way worse. And she at least deserves a better description than "sister."
Mitch could out direct all of them....plus he had the bouncing ball, so it's a natural.
