When CBS college basketball analyst Seth Davis was asked to describe the Arizona Wildcats’ 2010-2011 season on KTAR 620’s Doug and Wolf Monday morning he simply replied with one word:

“Brilliance.”

Davis, who has also been a writer at Sports Illustrated since 1995, attributed a considerable portion of that “brilliance” to second year Head Coach Sean Miller.

“I’ve always thought highly of Sean (Miller),” admitted Davis.

But Davis knows that even Miller had no idea what he was getting when inherited Pac-10 player of the year Derrick Williams after he was released from his letter of intent to USC following head coach Tim Floyd’s resignation.
