Dear @CoachMiles,

Thank you. You made a kid who didn’t follow Nebrasketball until he started UNL into a passionate fan. You gave him a chance to storm a court (2x). You gave him the chance to be interviewed on Selection Sunday. You reminded us Hate Will Never Win.

Going to miss @CoachMiles and his positivity (and his pics of @TimMilesDog). He was never too busy to meet Husker students and I couldn't have asked for a more outgoing coach to cover in my first year working for BTN!

I loved my time as a Husker and @CoachMiles was a big reason why. Never pretentious. Truly authentic. Always with a smile and willing to share or extend a helping hand to the “women down the hall” and that doesn’t always happen in this profession. He’ll bounce back! https://t.co/LhGIsf1vjj
