It's not every day you can nab a Hancock Co. HOF inductee.

Looks like he is a good candidate. It would be a coach that knows what it takes to get a player into the NBA...

Well..we know the daily grind of coaching and recruiting wouldn't be too hard on him. Life in the NBA is more difficult.

Well, a Yardbird's not quite a Falcon, but it's close enough.

He could at least provide some awesome halftime entertainment.

I think it'd be great. Dr. Sampen is a bit of a square.

Funny, his name came up in our last 2 coach searches.

The man could recruit. He brought some awesome talent to BG for Weinert.

That's for damned sure. Weinert had better talent than DD or JL.

Define talent. I think Jim probably brought in the most talented players. Getting them to play as a team and developing the talent was a different story. Though it would be close. Could be an interesting thread. Comparing talent between Weinert and Larranaga.

Wow, it would be great to get Parker. I wonder what happened to him after the Avery Johnson coaching transition at Dallas? I read that he was let go right about then....

I used to play against/with him at the SRC back in the day. He is a great guy, a real class act.

Wow, it would be great to get Parker. I imagine he is quite comfortable being treated like a king by Cuban. I doubt many coaches would give up a good chance at an NBA championship ring to step into our situation. I used to play against/with him all the time at the SRC back in the day. He is a class act.

He's no longer with an NBA team.
