Arizona Hires Xavier's Sean Miller

I assume this just happened in the last 20 mins????

ESPN radio's most recent SportsCenter update at 11:40 (I think) was still talking about him turning the job down...


EDIT: The Herd is now reporting he has accepted the job... he cited Yahoo Sports

That's too bad. If a powerhouse mid-major like Xavier can't hold onto a coach (and that goes for Memphis too), then I don't know what else can be done!

Xavier's Miller to be introduced as Arizona coach after revised offer

It's almost official.

DETROIT -- Barring another last-minute change of plans, Sean Miller will be introduced as Arizona's next basketball coach despite the fact that he turned down the job late Sunday, a source has told CBSSports.com.

According to a source, Miller scheduled a Monday afternoon meeting with his staff, at which point he is expected to finalize the decision. The source said Arizona athletic director Jim Livengood called Miller early Monday after having been rejected and "significantly changed" the offer, which was initially around $2 million per year for seven seasons. At that point, the source said, Miller got better assurances on the number of "buy" games he would be allowed to schedule, as well as some enhanced promises about the way the team would travel. Thus, Miller's career at Xavier seems set to end after five seasons, four of which resulted in NCAA tournament appearances.

A statement is expected later Monday.

A news conference could come as early as Tuesday.
