Not necessarily going to disagree but UA to PITT is quite a step down...Not often you see a coach take a step down to coach at his alma mater.

He contacted Pitt last year during Dixon/USC rumors, and I wouldn't say Pitt is a step down neither has been to a final four in the last 10 years

Pitt is most assuredly a step down from Arizona

PITT not a step down...? I think PITT is a solid basketball school...but C'mon man...
Team A: 1 Final Four, 3 Elite Eights, 8 Sweet 16s, 15 All Americans (8 in the 20s/30s)
Team B: 1 Nat'l Championship, 1 Runner-up, 4 Final Fours, 9 Elite Eights, 17 Sweet 16s, 6 All Americans....
Which program is better?

See your like the usual Tar Heel fan here in NC. Y'all have been so spoiled by the previous two coach y'all think y'all are a cream of the crop job(unc is). The fans here consistly wanting Roy head on a stick, but I always ask. Anybody outside of Roy will be a step down.

I like Dixon, I don't want him to leave I'm just saying if Dixon ever leaves we aren't going to just fall off the face the Earth, Pitt will pay for another coach. I didnt say Miller would leave I just said he contacted Pitt about the head coaching position when Dixon was rumored to be taken the USC job

Yeah, there's no way Sean Miller is voluntarily leaving 'Zona for Pitt.
'Zona is the modern day king of the PAC and Pitt will forever be second tier in the ACC.
Lute made that place into a damn factory.

You wouldn't be saying this if you were still in the Big East.
Before Ashley went down, they were the most talented team in the country.
Unless Sean wants to shrink his recruiting pool in half, he's not leaving.

Yea the timeout had nothing to do with that shot, it is what it is but Ennis not being close to the best freshman pg in CBB?
This year of course, but people were suggesting ever
Lol best ever?! Not even in syracuse have i heard someone say that.

I didn't see anyone say Ennis is the best freshman PG ever.
I said he's the most poised freshman PG I've ever seen, before he even hit the game winner (2 totally different things).
If anyone disagrees with that, I'd like to hear the challengers.

Who's POY so far?
Dougie Fresh?
I had Nick Johnson but he played terrible in their first loss.

Poise isn't a measurable thing but if you want to call him that be my guess. It's a prison of the moment statement based mostly off a lucky *** three. He good no doubt but the superlatives aren't always needed.

I mean, Pitt is his alma mater. Who knows, y'all acting like Zona had their pick of the litter and chose Miller.
He came to Arizona from Xavier, which isn't exactly a basketball power. He was a young rising star in the game. Mark Few turned it down if I remember correctly, along with a few other guys.

Prisoner of the moment?
Said it before he even hit the three in here and I have felt that way for more than a month.

And Cal said if UK wasn't open he would have gone to Zona if I remember correctly.
Enis has been clutch but if you think he possesses a magic clutch gene then those numbers will come even out. He's definitely a cool camper though, no denying that. No rattle.

It may be a step down, but no one would look at him like a fool if he went to Pitt from Zona if the money was right. He played at the school and has strong east coast ties. He's put together a hell of a staff and is a well liked coach by all accounts. I'm sure he could do better at Pitt than Dixon is currently doing.
Zona and Pitt are both jobs that are made by the coach. UK got their first choice coach because they are in a different tier than Zona. Kansas, UNC, UK are schools that no one is turning down regardless if they want you.
