Stan Jones

[shotgunDawg]

I am pretty good friends with an ex-FSU basketball player that played under Leonard Hamilton and Stan Jones. You will just have to take my word on it. In any event, tonight I called him and asked about Stan as it pertains to our situation, and here was his response, word for word," Stan is from Mississippi. I bet would love to have that job. He was by far the best basketball mind I have ever been around. He is way overdue for getting a head coaching job. He is ready, almost too ready if you know what I mean. He is Leonard's right hand man, and basically runs the FSU program now. If Leonard lost him that program would go down in a hurry."

Anyway that's it. Take it for what it's worth. I have no idea if he is a candidate or not or even have an opinion on whether we should hire him. However, for you arm chair ADs, here is additional information.

Many of us were around him when he was coaching high school. I still think his '94 JA team was the best MPSA team ever. I have no idea what kind of recruiter he is. I think that is the question with him.<div id="isChromeWebToolbarDiv" style="display:none"></div>

plus he pulled Darius Rice to Miami and almost had Hood to FSU.

If the rumors of kirby being unhappy at Gtown are true, you could bring him back as we know he's a good recruiter. Bring on Webster to sit on the bench and then one more guy that Stan likes and I think it's a pretty solid staff.<div>

Nasty stache.

in one of those "Stansbury can't draw up a play" threads. I remember someone using FSU as an example where the head coach deferred to his assistant to draw up in-game plays.

about his abilities to coach, but we need to get him on staff for the simple fact that his son is the best player in the nation (in his class). Malik put up better numbers as a freshman than Monta did.
