Post subject: | Jerry Sloan to resign |
KSL has learned that Utah Jazz coach Jerry Sloan and assistant coach Phil Johnson will resign at a press conference later Thursday. More details will be posted as they become available. The news comes after the Jazz lost to Chicago in Salt Lake City on Wednesday, where former Jazz players Kyle Korver and Ronnie Brewer helped the Bulls escape Utah with a 91-86 win. After the game, Sloan didn't come out of his office for a postgame interview until about a half-hour after his team lost for the 10th time in 14 games. The Hall of Famer, who usually talks to reporters about 10 minutes after the final buzzer, had been in a discussion with general manager Kevin O'Connor. "We just had something we had to discuss," Sloan said, "and we'll talk to you all later on about that." A major part of the discussion, however, was the possibility of a trade in the works. |

I think the guy is just burned out. He's old, he's rich, he's in the Hall of Fame. No reason to come back IMO....... unless he decides to take over for Philjack in L.A. |

Only if he can start fucking Jeannie Buss too. EDIT: Heard the Lakers are offering Jeannie Morris only, sources expect Sloan to take a pass. |

I love how because they kept him around, he's not the problem. Thats a good way to judge things. |

If the assistant is also resigning then there is definitely something else going on. I highly doubt he is done with coaching. |

from Yahoo Sports Sloan resigning after clash with Williams After a 23-season Hall-of-Fame run as coach of the Utah Jazz, Jerry Sloan abruptly resigned his job on Thursday. Sloan, 68, had agreed to a one-year contract extension in the past week but things publicly turned late Wednesday after a long meeting with Jazz general manager Kevin O’Connor following the team’s loss to the Chicago Bulls in Salt Lake City. Sloan and his longtime assistant, Phil Johnson, resigned together on Thursday. The Jazz planned a 5 p.m. ET news conference to officially make the announcement. More From Yahoo! Sports Staff * All-Star reserves set Feb 3, 2011 Sloan’s relationship with point guard Deron Williams(notes) had grown progressively worse over the course of the season, league sources said, and the coach had tired of dealing with the team’s best player. The frustration escalated on Wednesday night when Sloan and Williams clashed in the locker room at halftime. “He decided right there in halftime that he was done,” a league source told Yahoo! Sports. “He felt like ownership was listening more to Williams than they were to him anymore. He was done.” One source said Sloan had become tired of Williams “blaming everything on everyone else.” Still, Williams, who can become a free agent in the summer of 2012, has remained the Jazz’s best and most consistent player after the departure of several key teammates. Williams has always had a reputation for wanting to win badly and being a strong leader.............. http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news;_ylt=A ... ring021011 |

Hey, the guy to beat on scoops is and always will be Terry's Peeps. I like Sloan and his run with the Jazz probably won't be duplicated anytime soon. It was time though. 20+ years is quite a run. |

Jerry Sloan was the longest tenured of any head coach or manager in any of the major team sports and had signed a one-year contract extension earlier this week to continue as head coach of the Utah Jazz. It's believed there was a heated argument between Sloan and Deron Williams, who was held pretty much in check in the Jazz 91-86 loss to the Bulls just last night. Sloan and assistant Phil Johnson, Jerry's right hand man for most of those 23 years in Salt Lake City, are expected to announce their resignations at a 3p (MT) press conference this afternoon. This much is for sure...The Jazz cancelled their scheduled practice for today. |
