Former Dayton and current Rhode Island coach Archie Miller made headlines on Saturday for accidentally playing defense during a game against his old team. Miller, who led Dayton to NCAA tournaments and an Elite Eight berth before moving to Indiana and then Rhode Island, found himself crossing onto the court during a transition play. Despite his efforts, Dayton still scored an easy basket. The game ended in a blowout with Dayton shooting impressively from the field and beyond the arc.
Dayton fans gave Miller a warm welcome, but the players were less forgiving after the lopsided victory. Miller expressed gratitude for his time at Dayton but acknowledged the humbling defeat. His coaching career has seen ups and downs, and he now holds a record of 18-31 with Rhode Island. While Miller’s accidental defense was a moment of amusement, it was overshadowed by Dayton’s dominant performance on the court. Despite the loss, Miller remains focused on leading Rhode Island to success in the future.
