My Guess: Corbin is Re-signed

[The Midnight]

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.

Yeah, may be...

If the jazz make Corbin in charge of scouting and player personnel, we should expect us to draft a lot of underachieving seniors ... that is if we'd ever draft again. He'd likely advocate us selling all our picks for those skimpily clad, sexy vets.

That is a big *** thumb!

Yeah, cuz when he advocated to get Trey Burke, Burke was an underachieving senior....

I think Lindsey and KOC want to try something new. This is the first time the Jazz have tanked in 10 years. They're excited about building a new team with a new identity. They wrote this season off a long time ago. Corbin is a vestige of the past.

Atleast he nows how to dress...

if you dress up a turd.

it still stinks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Jazz don't show that much loyalty to where they re-sign players who aren't good or part of the future. Some people may point to the Memo deal, but he was a good player we wanted to keep. The loyalty played a factor into how much he was paid, but it wasn't why we kept him.

This ain't LHM's jazz anymore.
Greggy runs things differently.
And DL has control of this team now....at least he better. If he really does, Ty is gone.

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.

My view, nearly precisely. I'd put the likelihood of Ty's return at 15%.

I don't see it Jason. The expiring contract works into the Miller's favor so it won't be messy. They will ultimately do whatever Dennis Lindsey says, Greg Miller has said more than once he doesn't interfere with general managerial duties.

I hope so, honestly. A lot of good posts in here to make me feel better for sure.

Based on this though... Jazz beat LA in the final game too.

 

[The Midnight]

Funny how Ty will be good enough to coach us to beat the Lakers, which is exactly the opposite of what we want.

 

[UGLI baby]

0% chance of Ty coming back.

Not worried in the slightest.

 

[The Thriller]

With this horrible season and an empty arena, the Jazz's hand will be forced.

Replacing Corbin is the final step in handing it over to DL. The Jazz had a good run trying to do it their own way. It's time to update and find a coach who can scheme with the players we have and stop trying to fit them into a system they don't fit in.

Harpring's 4th year

Was he re-signed, or extended? Or was that just a situation where we didn't cut him?

Can't exactly recall what you are talking about.

I don't see Corbin back. We are awful, despite having better talent than any of the teams we are near in the w/l bracket.

We gave him a fourth year on his last contract. No other GM in the NBA would have given him four. I guess he was just a Utah Jazz kind of guy.
