March 24 (UPI) -- The Texas Longhorns reached an agreement to hire Xavier's Sean Miller as their new basketball coach, replacing Rodney Terry.
Sources told ESPN, The Athletic and the Austin American-Statesman about the agreement Monday.
Miller, 56, led the Musketeers to a 22-12 record this season, including a win over the Longhorns in a First Four matchup between the No. 11 seeds on Wednesday in Dayton, Ohio.
The Musketeers' season ended with an 86-73 loss to the No. 6 Illinois Fighting Illini in the first round of the 2025 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament Friday in Milwaukee.
Miller led the Musketeers to a 65-40 mark over the last three seasons. He led the Arizona Wildcats to a 302-109 record from 2009-10 through 2020-21. Miller went 120-47 during his initial stint with the Musketeers from 2004-05 through 2008-09.
He owns a 487-196 overall record. Miller's teams earned 13 trips to the NCAA tournament over his 20 years as a coach, including 2019-20, when the tournament was canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Longhorns, who went 19-16 this season, fired coach Rodney Terry on Sunday. Terry led the Longhorns to a 62-37 record over the last three seasons.
