It seems Kevin O'Neill has found a new gig.
The Commercial Appeal is reporting that Arizona's former interim coach will serve as an assistant on Marc Iavaroni's staff with the Memphis Grizzlies next season. According to the paper, an official announcement could come as early as today.
O'Neill was reassigned within the Arizona program once Lute Olson returned in March. That move -- precipitated by a deteriorating relationship between Olson and O'Neill -- led to O'Neill landing in Memphis, where his apparent hiring is designed to help improve one of the worst defenses in the NBA.

O'Neill to reportedly join the GrizzliesThats just great, hiring a bad coach to a already bad team. The griz can not seem to make a good hire, i think the griz day's in Memphis are numbered. The main man could care less about winning or losing, when the time is right for HIDE-LEY he will bail on Memphis. |
