Head Coach Jerry Sloan to resign today :(

[fallenchicken]

Gotta be a personal or family member's health issue, right. No way Sloan up and resigns and no way the Jazz fire him halfway during a season.

No. It sounds like their was a disagreement between KOC and Sloan. Since AK was at the meeting too, can we assume he is on his way out?

This should clear the way for AK to re-up for max money.

Oof.

 

[Wham!]

but if it was a health issue, why would KOC have some heated confrontation with Jer about it?

I feel sick....

So begins the coaching merry-go-round for the Utah Jazz.

 

[Sneakers]

Just can't get over the irony of after which game this transpired.

 

[dantheman]

This is a sad day. I'm excited to see what the future will hold, but to force him to resign in the middle of the season is just absolute beep. This blows, and who in the hell is going to coach the team now with Phil jumping ship as well? Beep.

Corbin?

[JoelHodgeJr]

I WILL! I will coach the Jazz. Please freinds help me start a movement to make me the new Jazz coach.

 

[gmoney]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Very sad day!!!!!

 

[fargon_sneaky_bastage]

I sure hope it wasn't Deron's doing. The day the Jazz allow the a player to dictate such things is the day they lose all they once stood for.

When is the press conference?

 

[margodydek]

Never heard anything about anything getting "heated". And what would KOC be so upset at Sloan about? KOC: Jerry, you shouldn't have had DWill in at the end of the game, or Jerry, why the heck didn't you use your big hands to fan the air so that those FT's went in?

Could have happened, but it just doesn't seem like KOC.

 

[Justys]

I want Horny or Stockton to be the next coach. Not Corbin

ingamestrategy: KOC is on line 1.

 

[billyshelby]

Any way you slice it this is great news. Yeah, it's tough to imagine him not being the coach. But separate the emotion and this is what had to happen.

Doubtful. I dont see Deron saying anything...especially to the front office.
