Waiting for offical announcement at this point.

Zags should go back to throwing frisbies.

I'm waiting for the next (third? fourth?) time Zags goes "Whoops, that was a bit premature of me to announce that."

 

[RUONTHERISE]

Can't wait till this is officially announced!

Welcome!

Look how long it took for the really real official announcement on Karl Hobbs. It takes as long as it is going to take, and we may not see official confirmation for a while longer.

Big difference between an agreement hung up in red tape vs. a deal that is still being negotiated.

Hopeful that's where we are on Knight - just wrapping it up.

Rothstein's tweet was a few hours after Zagoria's. If it were the other way around, I'd be concerned.

 

[PiscatawayMike]

Remember how long it took before Shoes was officially announced when Jordan became HC?

Go catch some aau games in the city this weekend and see if Knight is there in his RU gear

 

[Bunk350]

RU is probably just doing their due diligence with a through back ground investigation. Like confirming he has the college degree he claims he has and making sure there aren't any old allegations that he harassed and bullied his players........

Stuff takes time and no one with any official capacity has denied that he is getting hired, so I wouldn't worry.

C'mon, his name is KNIGHT for cryin' out loud. He's good to go. No background check necessary. [winking]

Not sure that is a good comparison. As I recall Shoes was a fall back candidate and was only hired after Jordan struck trying to attract an assistant from other P5 schools.

Shoes wasn't on Jordan's first staff. He had Cox, Macon, and O'Koren. It was O'Koren who wasn't named until around July which was ridiculous.

That's right. It was O'Koren that took forever.

It's always good to get an announcement that there is going to be an announcement to announce our new assistant coach.

 

[FELONIOUSMONK]

At this rate we may have more coaches than players. And they may be better shooters
