Mark Jackson

Maybe we could go after him if he's still available if we need him in the near future.

Thats not gonna happen. Wishful thinking. Ill be very surprised if he doesnt get another job really soon. Id love to have him @ Tech.

No on Mark Jackson (not that I think you were really serious). The team has improved every year he's been there but an argument could be made he was handed a ready-made unit and that he's more motivator than coach and that his assistants (who he couldn't apparently get along with) deserve a lot of credit for their success. I think his firing was premature though and was probably due to non-coaching matters.

If he ended up on the college level it'd probably be at St. Johns and well after his NBA coaching career is done. Like @Ggee87 said, he'll probably end up with another NBA job soon due to his good reputation and the league's propensity for hiring re-treads.
