Alright, so the other day I got thinking about college basketball, specifically Xavier. Their team always seems kinda gritty, you know? Made me wonder who’s steering the ship over there these days. It’s been a while since I really paid close attention.
So, I figured, let me just look it up. It wasn’t like some big project, just wanted to know for myself. Fired up my computer, opened a browser. My first step was pretty basic, just typed something like ‘xavier university basketball coach’ into the search bar. Nothing fancy.
Got a bunch of results back, obviously. News headlines, the official team page, fan forums, the usual stuff. The name Sean Miller popped up right away, like, everywhere. That name definitely sounded familiar. I was pretty sure he’d coached there before, years ago, right?
My process went something like this:
- Did that initial search.
- Scanned the first few results confirming Sean Miller was the guy.
- Clicked on a couple of recent news articles. Just wanted to see what the vibe was, how the team was doing lately under him.
- Looked at the official athletics website briefly. Mostly just confirmed he was listed as the head coach, saw his picture.
- Remembered his time at Arizona too. So I did another quick search like ‘sean miller arizona xavier’ just to refresh my memory on the timeline of him leaving and coming back.
Getting the Info
It confirmed what I thought – he had coached Xavier, left for Arizona, and then came back to Xavier a couple of years ago. Found that pretty interesting. Not too many coaches go back to their old stomping grounds like that after a big job elsewhere.
Didn’t spend ages on it, maybe 15-20 minutes total just clicking around. Read a bit about his return, some fan reactions from when it happened. It wasn’t like I was doing deep analysis or anything, just satisfying my own curiosity. I just wanted to put a name to the face running the team now.
So yeah, that was my little dive into figuring out who the Xavier basketball coach is. Just a quick search session driven by a random thought. Now I know it’s Sean Miller, back again. Simple as that.
