T.J. McConnell Is a Mirror Image of Arizona Coach Sean Miller, Minus the Suit and Tie

nytimes.com - LOS ANGELES — The men’s basketball team from Pittsburgh’s Duquesne University opened the 2011-12 season with a game at highly ranked Arizona. The Duquesne coach at the time, Ron Everhart, said beforehand that his sophomore point guard, T. J. McConnell, reminded him of a young Sean Miller — a Pittsburgh-area star in high school, a four-year collegiate starter at Pittsburgh and now Arizona’s coach.

The Wildcats escaped with a narrow victory. McConnell played 37 minutes and had 9 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 steals.
