Wes Miller Apology, Miami vs. Ole Miss Takeaways, Mailbag
Cincinnati Bearcats men’s basketball head coach Wes Miller publicly apologized after a heated postgame radio outburst this week following a tough 62–60 loss at West Virginia. In his initial remarks during the postgame interview on NewsRadio 700 WLW, Miller pushed back against media and fan criticism, saying things like “I don’t care what people think… Everybody can quit on us… It’s us against the world” in response to questions about his team’s disappointing 8–7 start and late-game struggles in Big 12 play.
The tone and intensity of that interview drew significant attention and mixed reactions on social media and among Bearcats fans, with some critics calling his comments defensive and unbecoming for a head coach.
Recognizing that his emotion spilled over, Miller opened his subsequent weekly radio show with an apology to longtime Cincinnati broadcaster Dan Hoard and co-host Terry Nelson. In that apology he acknowledged that his anger and frustration from the moment got the better of him and emphasized that his outburst was not directed at the hosts or intended to insult them.
Miller’s gesture signaled an effort to smooth over relations with local media and recalibrate the narrative around his leadership during a challenging stretch of the season. While he has stood by his defense of the team’s effort and reiterated his commitment to his players and program, this apology also underscored that, even at the highest levels of college coaching, emotions can run high in the wake of close losses — and that maintaining professional composure remains important when speaking publicly about struggles and criticism.
