Head Coach Jerry Sloan to resign today :(

[calijazz]

Bigger story of the day: Egyptian President steps down or Jerry Sloan steps down?

I am still in shock.

I agree Jerry's time was up. But how could they do him like they did?

I have been back and forth on Sloan for some time now. I am certainly not opposed to taking a new direction, but I really hope it doesn't go down like this. I would MUCH have preferred Sloan to step aside at the end of the year gracefully and with his dignity in tact than a mid-season firing.

He re-signed a new contract and then days later resigned, lolol puns, get it?

I hope all you sorry, hating mother****ers are happy. This is a dark day for the Jazz and Jazz fans.

Was that Archie who just called 1280?

Like Sloan always says...this is a business. And a business decision was made. Sucks, I would have liked it to happen like you mentioned, but it didnt. Time to move on. Ill miss Sloan.

exactly what i was thinking. its not like a new coach can salvage the season at this point.

Did the caller have a lisp?

 

[margodydek]

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.

the championship is ours to lose now!

You're kidding right?
