First there was Sean. Then there was Archie.
First there was Sean.
Arizona head men’s basketball coach Sean Miller has had his bouts trying to reach the NCAA Tournament’s Final Four. Four times he’s fallen just on the outside in the Elite Eight.
Last year, Miller had his concerns rise when No. 11 seed Wichita State defeated Vanderbilt in the play-in round in Dayton, Ohio. When the two met in Providence, R.I., Wichita State head coach Gregg Marshall and company ran away with an early first half run. By halftime, Arizona had handed over too many turnovers for comfort along with a 12-point Wichita State lead.
