The official fire Jim Boylen thread\ pre hire of course.

[mellow]

Corbin extended.

But no worries, Boylen is a ruse. The jazz needed a name out there to drum up talk and deflect a little off of Ty. Boylen was a perfect fit. Maybe Lindsey owed Pop a favor.

Bring on Messina.

Well we can't have our cake and eat it too. So pick your poison. Corbin renewed or hiring Boylen?

Why not? Was hiring Boylen a condition for not giving Corbin a new deal?

Hiring Boylen would be a public relations disaster and he would have zero grace period. I hope that Spencer Eccles has already called the Millers to express that he really doesn't want to watch a Boylen-coached team from his front row seats.

Anyone who hates Gordon Monson is ok by me.

DL has to know what he did to U of U

The media folks don't seem to like Boylen too much.

Nice of you to show up.

The media folks don't seem to like Boylen too much.

They like him because he'll create the most buzz (albeit, negative) of any of the candidates. To them, it's all about ratings and they know he'll be the one to draw in page views, viewers and listeners.
