So, Sean Miller gets a chance at redemption with his old school Xavier after a scandal at Arizona tarnishes his coaching opportunities. He has 3 good seasons there, then two days after losing in tourney, in the midst of portal time he abruptly leaves them in the lurch. Calls it "life changing opportunity" to coach Texas, after he already had one of those at Arizona that lasted for yrs. So, the team that gives him a chance to redeem himself is only worth 3 years of his time. This story is emblematic of college basketball (and football) coaches. They are no more than hired gunslingers, which is OK if they would just acknowledge it once in a while and not pretend to be something else.

@jdunlap44 Brady is such a difference maker with his shooting and emotion…no ceiling for him. Really hope he wants to run it back at SLU!

@RoccoMiller8 Don’t give Crews that credit. They were Majerus teams … Crews was a merely a caretaker who torpedoed the future by not capitalizing on what should have been a transformative 3-year run.

A memorable season at Saint Louis comes to an end at 29-6. Best season since the Jim Crews teams, 12 years ago, and matched the programs' best run in March (Round of 32) since 1957. Most wins (29) in program history. A ton to build on. #A10MBB

Not many are expecting the Billikens to shock the basketball world. But it sure would be fun. For Spoon, for Claggett and Hughes, Highmark and Jett. Evans, Mitchell, Majerus, and so many others. Have a day SLU!

@pghsteelersgrl Don’t be so self important…you couldn’t manage to beat VCU and have an Athletic Department posting about their pride in playing in the NIT.

SLU fans might be the most pathetic fanbase in all of sports. It’s actually kinda sad. Instead of celebrating their accomplishment, they are busy blowing up my mentions. Poor pathetic little brother, you lost to us twice….and we suck!

Dayton had zero fouls in the first 10 minutes against SLU. The Flyers have gone 12-plus minutes to start today's game without being whistled.

@DaytonBC Stop. That happens 30 times per game from head and assistant coaches. Refs tolerate it.

@RoccSTL SLU needs to win out or at least get to A10 Final to get off that 8/9 line…

Lunardi has kept Missouri and Saint Louis on a potential matchup line, but it’s gone from a 6/11 to 7/10 and today debuts as an 8/9 #Billikens still have the edge. Illinois is the local team playing in STL as the #2 seed

Bruce Pearl on 29-0 Miami (OH): "If we're selecting the 68 best teams, then Miami (Ohio) is going to have to win their tournament to qualify as a champion. Because as an at-large, they are not one of the best teams in the country." 🏀🎙️#NCAATournament

Basketball is a game of runs! I’ve got guys I’d prefer to see in combination more often, but these 9 for 40 minutes 💙⚪️ 20 in a row at the "Fetz" 💪
