Quin Synder lead Missouri to four straight NCAA Tournament's and made the Elite 8 as well the farthest a Missouri team has ever gone. Won Rookie Coach of the Year by Basketball Times his first year at Missouri.
Was also the head coach for the NBADL Austin Torros. With them he made the D-Leage finals once, the semi-finals twice, won Coach of the Year as well. Has the most wins for a D-League coach ever in a 3-year span.
Was an assistant for Duke, the Clippers, 76ers, Lakers, Hawks, and CSKA Moscow.
Not a bad resume.. I wouldn't mind him.
Marc Stein: "NBA coaching sources have identified another prime candidate for the Utah Jazz opening: Hawks assistant Quin Snyder.. Snyder worked with Jazz GM Dennis Lindsey in San Antonio and, interestingly, spent a season with CSKA Moscow studying Lindsey pal Ettore Messina."
Amin Elhassan: "I think if you're going to take a risk with a foreign coach, it would have to come in a place like Utah: small market, young team, no expectations. Snyder would be good, if safer, pick. He brings great experience as a former college and D-League head coach and international assistant."
My coach big board is:
1. Ettore Messina
2. Quin Synder
3. Mike Longabardi
Anyone after that I don't really care for.
