At what point does Miller become too hot for AZ to handle?

That point may be coming as soon as today pending the following ...
Stay tuned, this'll be good.

Given the NCAA does not have the capacity to force someone to tell the truth, and Miller continues to deny everything, AZ will don the insulated gloves and move on with him. As long as he wins.

It is still all hearsay at this point so
True. I'm still hoping, via Dawkins and iiuc Code's testimony, more incriminating material is allowed into evidence. IIUC, their testimony is the only way the previously-excluded evidence can be allowed in.
I don't know the legal rules behind why that's the case. Just going by what I read.

Really interesting timing.... Dawkins & Code take the stand on the last day or so of the open recruiting period Has to be difficult for Miller (and many others) to really focus on watching kids & pitch them while also wondering what is being said / shown in court...
But after Duke signs 2 highly regarded kids in 7 days.

This piece jumped out at me:
"By the time those kids get to college, the deals are usually already done," Dawkins testified. "There's no need to pay a college coach because these players are coming to college with agents. This idea that it's an amateur world is not real."
"I could be wrong here, but I'm pretty sure that no one is signing players who isn't paying."
Maybe that’s the cause for our troubles over the last 10+ years!!

I doubt anyone on this board is surprised to hear this. 5* basketball players know there is a market for their talent and they are not unwise about the process. Do they really care what happens to Duke or UK or Kansas or Arizona? Not a chance. The only reason we are not in this loop is that we cannot afford to pay Zion or RJ or their compatriots. If this offends anyone, so be it.

That is probably one of the least surprising firing's ever. only surprise was it took this long.
I bet his contract ran to April 30 (alot of basketball contracts do)
It's funny if you go to the basketball board at Tigernet how many of the fans say you don't talk about the football program if you are a basketball guy.
