    Hopefully Ryan learned some things in case he gets another shot in the future. My advice would to be not break out the big guns too early. Wait until you get an actual interview before flashing your autographed picture of Steve Alford.
    I wouldn't want to call him back because I'd feel slimy for the rest of the day.

      I would think Sell could have given a courtesy call to Ryan if he had interviewed him. I know if I were him I would have appreciated one. If someone doesn't answer, there is this thing called voicemail as well. I guess I thought Sell would be a little more professional.

        That was one of my first reactions. Not sure I would use someone as a reference that has had to vacate winning seasons and championships at all his previous stops. Probably works well with the general public, but maybe not with many AD's.

          If I'm an AD and Calipari is on a reference list of a possible candidate, I'd throw the resume in the trash. Call me a dummy but I wouldn't want a guy who two had final four appearances (UMass & Memphis) "vacated" by the NCAA listed as a reference. I don't care how many national championships he's won or how big of a name he is. He's a flat out cheater.

          Sell doesn't need to call Calipari back just because of who he is. Not calling him back is a sign to me that Ryan Miller was never a serious candidate. The Miller camp is going to have to accept that and get over it.

          Mike is coming across as the little brother whose big brother just got beat up. Grow up.

            Just doesn't compute for me.

We have a lot of connections down there with Mark Burgers as their Associate Athletic Director. They run a solid program down there in many ways like ours so it was apparent that our people talked to their people.
              Hope they talked about a home-and-home.

                My point is, if he did not call Miller back I do not agree with Sell's decision. I could care less about calling a reference back.

                  You were a little slow with the ninja edit. I actually agree that you have no clue what happened.

                    Thats why I said if it happened. I am late to this story, enlighten me.

                        That's the point, nobody but Justin Sell knows the story but Mike Miller and the poster I responded to are whining about Sell not returning Calipari's phone call.

                          Oh, yeah I misinterpreted the posts. It was hard to tell what was going on since Miller deleted his posts. If he did not respond to references that is no big deal. Sorry for my ignorance.

                              No problem. There just seems like there's some sour grapes coming from the Miller camp about a process very few know anything about. I'm thrilled with the guy we got.

                                I was leaning toward Ryan as the next guy, but I also agree with this post. Nothing worse than a celebrity lobbing bombs via social media.
