Also on Thursday, the regents are scheduled to hold another closed-door session of “legal advice and discussion regarding University of Arizona men’s basketball.” The topic has been regularly a part of the private executive session since the federal investigation became public.

Former UA assistant Book Richardson was sentenced last week to three months in prison and two years’ probation after pleading guilty to one count of federal funds bribery. In a victim impact statement sent to U.S. District Court, UA said it was bracing for potentially substantial NCAA sanctions as a result of Richardson’s actions. If the NCAA finds rules were broken, Miller could face discipline under NCAA Bylaw 11.1.1.1, which states head coaches are responsible for the actions of their direct and indirect reports unless they can rebut the presumption of responsibility.

Miller is scheduled to earn $2.4 million plus about $400,000 from Nike and IMG and in incentive bonuses next season, and $2.5 million plus the $400,000 and bonuses in both 2020-21 and 2021-22.
