Possible HC for Hawks:

[Guest]

Per ESPN (so take it for what it's worth):

With members of the Hawks' coaching staff bracing for the firing of Larry Drew to the point that they privately already consider themselves "free agents," in the words of one source, two names have already emerged as prime targets for Hawks general manager Danny Ferry in the anticipated search for Drew's replacement: Budenholzer and Quin Snyder.

Both worked with Ferry in San Antonio; Snyder spent the past season in Russia as an assistant to European coaching legend Ettore Messina.

Drew is expected to receive consideration in Philadelphia and likely in other cities, too, after doing what is widely regarded as a quality job maxing out with an Atlanta roster filled with free agents this season.

I knew that Ferry would find someone from SA to take over as HC. It meets what we know about the A$G: they are too cheap to actually pay a real name coach. So here comes the clown car of assistant coaches begging to get their first head coaching job in the NBA.

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

No interest in Quin Snyder at all (played with Ferry at Duke)

Budenhoizer would be interesting though

I vaguely remember Snyder as a college coach (maybe Mizzou) and something about him rubbed me the wrong way, not sure what. He has a face that makes me wanna slap him.I'll take Buldenhoizer though.

(( sigh ))

If Ferry signs Quin Snyder . . . man . . . that would be one hell of a disappointing start to the offseason. CP3 and D12 will say . . . who?

I guess Ferry can't sign a big name coach, because that coach would want a lot more power than just being the coach.

Who knows about coaches. The Bulls found a great one off of somebody elses bench. The Celtics found a good one after some one else fired him. Popovich was a nobody at some point.

Add to that Spoelstra and Voegel were video coordinators, Mark Jackson a broadcaster.It really is a crap shoot.Ferry has a vision of what kind of team he wants and will hire a coach that can carry out his vision.

But but but that doesn't allow the haters to hate on the ASG for trying to hire someone but a retread. I mean come on we all know the ASG are too cheap to hire any of these awesome big name coaches who are available and wanting to coach, such as...

]It is the hair - greasy....(shudder). Yeah, forgot Scott.

Coaching decision will help us see very very clearly whether Ferry deems a CP3 + DH union in ATL to be a realistic proposition... not likely that those guys come to Philips with anything less than a top-tier coach leading the charge.

News is that we're getting close to signing Quin Snyder... IFWT?

Quin Snyder is a fine coach................but his Christian Laetnner / Bobby Hurley hair-do would have to go.

He got a raw deal at Mizzu.

Oh no that hair needs to stay

Where did you here that? The article only said he was a front runner.

[PSSSHHHRRR87]

Seems we aren't the only team that covets Snyder too.

Matthew McConaughey at Head Coach will definitely fit our new superstar image.
