Wes Miller took over for UNCG earlier in the year, turned them around from a door mat to first in their division. Some want him to be hired as coach, others as an assistant. He will be a good coach somewhere big, maybe Wake someday.Why is this thread 243 posts? :cliffs:

I would guess UNCG gives Miller a little more money before next year.
From what others have said he was a huge Wake fan growing up. And it's hard to imagine UNC hiring an alum any time soon after the Doherty debacle. But he will probably be at UNCG for the foreseeable future to build his name on a more national level.I don't see him ever coaching at Wake. I imagine UNC is his dream job and he'd never leave Wake for UNC. He'll have plenty of choices to coach besides where is dad is a huge donor. Maybe Wake's his dream job after all. In that case he'll probably suck hard .
I still say we are blowing such an obvious play here. Think of the excitement we could generate by firing Bzz and hiring Wes this offseason. By waiting, we just pass up an opportunity that might not come again.
I said it in 2010 and I am saying it now. Hire Wes Miller before it is too late.
\I agree that we need to fire Bzz, but don't think Wes has enough experience at this point. I think Wes is going to be an outstanding coach in the future, but he's not ready for an ACC job. With that said, I'd take Wes over Bzzz right now, but I think we could get someone who is a little more of a sure thing.

Some interesting takes a decade ago.
We probably have already missed the opportunity to hire him as I wanted to do before last season.
I think we should offer up our walk-on spots to the highest bidder.
Simpson was on the bench in street clothes last night with an injury and they still won by 15.
Kim Record is a moron. I hear Wes is a candidate for the about to be open UCLA job. We are morons if we don't scoop him up right now.
Chalk one up for me in 2012!The chances of any ACC school moving on Wes Miller this year is somewhere south of slim and fucking none.
I just think he moves pretty quickly if he is as good as advertised. If he isn't as good as advertised then we don't want him anyway. Either way in my opinin we don't end up with him. We might be able to wait a year and see what he does at UNC-G, but at that point he is more expensive and there are more suitors.
Like I said in the last post. Even though Wes probably isn't ready, I still think he would do a better job than Bz at this point in getting our program back on track. My guess is that Wes really isn't even on Wellman's reality wishlist right now, and we are all just enjoying a thread of pipedreams, but it is kind of fun to speculate and figure out if Wes would make a good fit. I really want to see UNC - G play now though...that is for sure.
