Maybe confusing isn’t the right word, but there are too many qualified guys available to start your franchise’s first season with someone with no experience whatsoever.

The only thing I could think of is that because the D-League’s been primarily in the midwest and west the last few years, a lot of coaches have ties to those areas now and may not want to chuck it all and move to Maine. Then again, I’d think a good assistant might be willing to do it in order to get a head coaching job, so who knows.

…and a buck fifty gets you a cup of coffee.

This is complete conjecture, but young Austin isn’t going to get this job (one would not think) but who ever gets that job will have his Austin right by his side…learning the ropes and waiting his turn…which will be next…
