My Guess: Corbin is Re-signed

Why do I think this?

I believe the Jazz pride themselves on loyalty first and foremost. The Miller organization, since they've owned the team, haven't fired a coach... ever! As much as we love Jerry now, you can find posts on this forum that call for his firing plenty. I believe they will play the card that the team's long-term direction forced Corbin to have a less-than-ideal product to work with and that isn't his fault. They'll see slight improvements in some players and schemes that will validate their reasoning. I have no idea what those would be but I bet they find them.

I expect a two-year contract to be signed.

Just a hunch... I'm interested to see how it plays and, if it happens, the fan reaction.
 
They won't fire Corbin. His contract is expiring. They always extended Sloan so that he wouldn't coach as a lame duck, just like Corbin did this season. Corbin is a goner. Book it.
 
Right. The diffrence is that he wont be fired, just not offered another contract. Still insane that the Millers, as astute as they appear, do not believe in accountability.
 
wouldnt be suprised.


would be gone then.

seeing as cant watch any games anymore.

no joy whatsoever this seaons in watching games.

saw 1 game since before all star break.


this franchise will die if corbin is resigned
 
My fired comments meant to apply to an expiring contract. Poor word choice but still the same - I think he's coming back. Only a gut feel...

it doesn't matter who will be the coach, the point of no return was reached some time ago

the next 8-10 years will be awful for the jazz
 
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

go for it

just because you root for the jazz shouldn't stop you to enjoy some good quality and smart basketball
 
Lindsey made a huge deal about Ty's ability to evaluate talent last year after the Trey draft. Lindsey said that Ty Corbin saw something he liked in Trey Burke when scouting him and so the jazz took action to move up based on Ty's assement.

At the time I thought Lindsey was trying to publicly distance himself from Trey by pegging it on Ty. Latter I considered that the jazz could be planning to move Ty Corbin into a role with scouting and player personal, a job held by Walt Perrin. The more I thought about it the more it makes sense. It is consistent with the character of the miller family to reward an employee who tried hard, and was loyal. Plus Ty by every account represents the miller family values.

My prediction: a new Jazz coach in June, but unless Ty chooses to go to Phoenix with Jeffery he will still be a jazz employee come October.

The difference is, the Jazz never had reason to fire a coach. They had a HOF'er in Sloan. There was never a debate on whether or not he was a good/great HC. But DESPITE that fact, Larry H. admitted there were a couple of times he came close due to the Jazz underachieving.

In this case, I think a few things are different: the Jazz' GM did NOT hire Corbin; KOC did. Generally GM's are given a chance to hire who they want. Dennis also won the war over how to rebuild (vs. the "reboot" and try to stay competitive approach of KOC). That tells me the Millers have placed a lot of faith in Lindsey. Dennis also PUBLICLY set some standards against which Ty would be measured. What GM does something like that? And those standards - improving defensively - have clearly not been met as the Jazz are 30th in the league. I just can't see a scenario under which Ty returns.
 
There appears to be a big difference between Larry Miller + Jerry Sloan and the bodies that were left to fill the leadership vacuum. I have close to zero faith in Greg, so I hope Lindsey is able to seize a huge grip on the reins.
 
You are the man behind this entire site, so I am trying hard to hold back on my disgust at this thread. IR-regardless, I think you have been partaking a bit too much in the green Jello my friend. Later this month, I fully expect the Jazz will announce that Ty's contract will not be renewed, but it will be worded in a positive way about how wonderful he has been, however they plan to go in another direction
