After turning down Arizona's initial offer, Xavier's Sean Miller has opted to head out West.

Miller, 40, became the latest to spurn Arizona athletic director Jim Livengood shortly after their meeting in New Mexico on Saturday afternoon.

However, after another conversation with Livengood, Miller had second thoughts about his initial decision and has agreed in principle to a seven-year deal worth in excess of $2 million per season.

A news conference is scheduled for Tuesday.

Miller, 40, has spent the last five seasons as the head coach of the Musketeers and has made four consecutive NCAA tournament appearances - including an Elite Eight last season and a Sweet 16 this past year.

Miller earned approximately $800,000 at Xavier.

Livengood had reached out to high-profile coaches such as Pittsburgh's Jamie Dixon, Villanova's Jay Wright and Gonzaga's Mark Few - but none were interested in making the move.

USC's Tim Floyd took a visit to Tucson last week, but decided to spurn Arizona's offer.

Arizona reached the Sweet 16 this past season, but will likely lose juniors Chase Budinger and Jordan Hill to the NBA Draft. The Wildcats recruiting classes over the past two years have been decimated due to the instability of Hall of Fame coach Lute Olson - who retired prior to the start of the season.

Russ Pennell was the second straight interim coach, following Kevin O'Neill in 2007-08.

It'll be a major rebuilding process for Miller in Tucson the next couple of years to upgrade the talent level. However, he felt he could win a national title at Arizona - which Olson did back in 1997.
