Tony Jones on ESPN 700 said he's hearing that Alex Jensen and the rest of the assistants most likely won't be retained, says Hardy will likely bring in his own staff.

It will be interesting to see who he brings in as assistants. It felt like Quin avoided hiring established assistants. I always got the impression Quin didn't want to be challenged by his assistants. I thought it was one of his weaknesses.

They also cost money and FO isnt always willing to grant that kind of money to coaches to hire those guys.

Which is why Im a bit surprised if Jensen is let go. They still have to pay him.

That's true, very well could be the case.

I'm a fan of Jensen going back to him playing for the U. I'll be sad to see him go.

My source told me they expected Jensen to stay on, which was a big reason he was scheduled to coach the SL team. Jensen has been here since before Quin.
 
Hardy coached Rudy Gay in SA... so maybe he can help him get back on track.

I hope so. Though If I was Hardy, I'm not sure I would want to keep Jensen on. There has to be some resentment there after being with the team for so long and passing up other opportunities and then to not get the job.

The idea was that he would stay on for the last year of his contract then leave. I doubt he wants a college job. Makes sense to just stay put if they dont want to axe him, but maybe they do.

Maybe he follows Quin to San Antonio next year. Hopefully he gets some other opportunities at a HC job soon.
