Guess I was a bit behind, didn't realize Jason left as well. Ouch.

How about Jalen Rose? He said on a podcast recently that he would like to coach some day.

I was always a big Tom Boerwinkle fan, but he's dead. Maybe Moser could hire Will Perdue. He'd look impressive standing sentinel along the sidelines during practice!
Edit: On second thought, maybe Boerwinkle could still be considered for the position (assuming he wasn't cremated). He might not be the best recruiter anymore, but his condition (being dead) would certainly not interfere with the discharge of the responsibilities Moser entrusts to his assistants at practice.

Ironically, the problem with someone like Rose is he already has a good commentator gig so wouldn't it cost a pretty penny to get him?
I was thinking more Scottie Pippen because he could use just about any amount of money somebody would throw his way...

Yeah, I'd imagine.

Hey 86...Any chance you'd give up your lucrative career to go back and coach?

Nobody in the athletic dept wants a guy that will tell you the unvarnished truth and then actually do something to make it better

Yeah, that would really suck.
(And by the way, you're not the only one who's had a little experience with the phenomenon of being an unwelcome messenger)

For the right money I'd slather on so many layers of varnish that you could sell their bullshit for amber boulders.
