Sean Miller Imitates Ryan Braun
- Thread starter The Song Remains the Same
- Start date
Who imitated Bill Clinton......
The Arizona board has threads about timing issues with the accusations. Supposed Miller call to pay $100,000 was after the player had already signed with Arizona. Then reporters changed the dates (sound familiar?) to make timeline better.
Apparently a local media guy has called them out on it and the reporter who broke the story/ ESPN have gone silent. Don’t know what’s true or if it’s fans just defending the home team......but it’s odd that a week has gone by and Arizona hasn’t fired Miller yet.
Given Miller and Pitino’s strong statements of denial, (and after seeing how the game is played over the past 5 years with leaks and media reporting), I’m starting to wonder if this may not be as simple and straight forward as ESPN has been making it.

The thing that makes me question it is I'm doubtful that Sean Miller would be so dumb as to take care of those kinds of transactions personally. I don't doubt he'd have them done for him, but would he do them personally? If so then Sean Miller is really, really dumb.
No argument as all are valid points, but Miller very carefully parsed his response, and I'm wondering if the wiretapped call was in reference to Miller getting a kickback of $100,000 if Ayton were to sign with that agent. Nothing Miller said would contradict or refute that possibility fwiw.
Yahoo and ESPN’s Mark Schlabach have been the main driving forces of the story. ESPN celebrity/ reporters then totally ran with it, throwing gasoline all over the place. Here’s Saturday’s college game day where they discussed the (as of now- unproven and leaked by an anonymous source) accusations.
