Sean Miller's Words and Beliefs

[Masterofreality]

With the express permission of the individual who purchased the CBS Banner at the AFO Golf Outing, and who wishes to remain anonymous, here are the inspirational words of Sean Miller that he wrote on that banner the day after the UCLA loss. Thanks to the donor for the generous auction purchase, and for allowing these words to be posted here.


"People have continually reminded me that teams must "knock on the door" a few times before they can break through. In this case, this sign represents our 2nd time in the Elite 8 vs. UCLA in Phoenix, AZ on March 29, 2008. This is our last knock at this level. The next time - and that day will come at Xavier University - We will take the next step into a Final Four. I "took" this sign as a representation of this thought, dream, goal. We all look forward to striving towards this "bar" everyday. Our belief and passion to reach this height wakes us up every morning to make sure that Xavier University, our program and fans will one day see this happen!

If this doesn't send chills up your spine, and make you swell with pride over this coach, this program and this school, I don't know what will.

That is a COACH and a Spirit we all can love. I hope he makes that dream and more. I'd like to see Sean Miller be the "Wizard of Evanston" the second best known person to make his mark or come out of Evanston.
