    Anyone that hires and keeps Sean Miller isn't serious.

    I was talking about this yesterday. Arizona is no longer elite. They haven't won a championship in 20 years and haven't been to a Final Four in 16 years. They have a guy that recruits off of the success a legend built and is a mediocre bench coach.

    They will toil in the middle forever with Miller. Very Good is the enemy of Great.

    Miller is the lesser version of Bill Self ...

    You can't fire Self ...

    But at the same time I feel like Kansas is a step behind the elite

    Self has a ring and like 12 consecutive conference titles.

    Miller will never sniff that. I know you said lesser, but that's like saying Ty Willingham is a lesser Jim Harbaugh.

    the march performances have been disappointing.

    but 13 straight big 12 regular season titles may be the most remarkable streak in sports.

    Any criticism of Self is FS too. He wins the Big 12 every year, won a championship, and made another championship game.

    People don't realize how many NCAA coaches have more than 1 championship. The list isn't long for those who are lazy to google.

    Exactly ... it's hard to get deep into the tournament ... all it takes is one off day and you're out.

    It's why to me the real accurate measure of a coach is how he performs in conference ... and Self is amazing in that regard. Kansas isn't always the most talented team in the conference ... but they always seem to get the most out of their talent.

    If I was a Kansas supporter, I don't think I'd ever advocate firing Self ... but at the same time, it's got to sting to come up short so many times.
