It's a shame. Management didn't do him many favors with that roster.

i keep forgetting how many of our players from the 80s coach(ed) in the NBA. I don't know if its really correlated or not..but it kinda makes you think about just how big an impact Valvano had on people.

5/3/2010 11:29:44 PM

maybe we can bring him on as an assistant?

5/3/2010 11:51:32 PM

BUT LEBRON IS ABOUT TO GO TO CHICAGO!!!!!!!!!!!1111111

I was going to start this thread, but with all the Sidney Love around this board...

We already have an unsuccessful NBA coach, no need to spend even more money.

VINNY 4 AD

Vincent the Black for AD

Sounds like a medieval warlord

5/4/2010 12:23:39 AM

vinny for AD wouldn't be a terrible idea. the guy was high up in the suns organization for a while so I'm sure he has some relevant experience

5/4/2010 1:46:07 AM

thats a shame they were playing great at the end of the season and in the playoffs

I honestly have no idea how being a front office guy in the NBA would translate to athletic director at the college level, but I would assume that a lot of that personnel experience would translate. Hell, he couldn't be worse than fowler.

Vinny for AD
Cowher for SID

5/4/2010 9:57:46 AM

5/4/2010 10:08:58 AM

5/4/2010 10:13:52 AM

Vinny of the blacks

5/4/2010 12:39:57 PM

I never liked the fit since the two teams that I have consistently hated from day one have been the Chicago Bulls and the University of North Carolina!

I am no longer in an uncomfortable position. Hopefully, Vinny can coach an organization that actually warrants backing.
