According to ESPN, former Indiana coach and serial NCAA rule violator Kelvin Sampson is on Scott Skiles’ short list to join his staff as an assistant coach. Other names include New Mexico coach Craig Neal and former Buck Joe Wolf.
It just goes to show you how once you are in the basketball “fraternity” just how hard it is to talk your way out of it. First Billy King is rumored for open GM jobs in Miilwaukee and New York, and now Sampson — who was fired from Indiana for the exact same violations that he committed at Oklahoma — is a job candidate?
I guess he’s a good coach. And at least at the pro level, calling the other teams’ players on the phone a thousand times can’t get you fired.
