Miller Interested in Colgate Job

As great a ride as it's been for Glen Miller in his first season as UConn's director of basketball administration, he yearns to be back on the sidelines as a coach in some capacity.

In his current position, Miller isn't even allowed to be on the floor during practices, and he's not supposed to function as a coach during games.

With that in mind, the vacant head coaching position at Colgate intrigues Miller, and the interest appears to be mutual: Colgate athletic director Dave Roach hired Miller at Brown, where Miller spent six successful seasons as head coach.

"I’m sure he’s going through a process of evaluating other coaches," Miller said of Roach. "But he knows me, he knows me as a coach, he had experience with me for six years that were a successful run. So it’s not like he needs to do a whole lot to find out more about me."

Colgate head coach Emmett Davis was fired a couple of weeks ago.

More than anything, at this point, Miller doesn't want to distract from UConn's Final Four experience.

"You just don’t know what’s going to come up in the next couple of weeks or the next month. You’ve just got to be patient and be engaged in what’s going on right now, which is real special."

Why? I thought he was absolved of any wrongdoing? Is is just because the media would jump all over it?
