    Carl Henry has said he has not been offered any position and would not accept it if he were. He has NO desire to coach either CJ or Xavier.

          The article states the "FIU is not worried about Isiah's past." But are the co-eds?

                  It's not amazing at all -- College Basketball is BIG business, even for the little guys. If Thomas succeeds at FIU, then it not only brings notice to the school, but to the conference -- just like Calipari did to Memphis. More success = more butts in the seats = more $$ in the budget = more ability to attract better recruits. The stream has to start somewhere.

                    I agree that success can mean BIG business for the college/university. But I stand by my earlier sentiment, What in Isiah's post-NBA career would indicate he will have success? He was run out of Toronto, Single-handedly bankrupted the CBA, ruined the Knicks in a long-term sort of way, and forced his employer, the Knicks, to have to pay an 11+ million settlement for sexual harrassment.

                    FIU, enjoy the positive publicity for the hire, it is all down hill from here!

                        I was following that this morning on the Slant for my brother who couldn't follow at work. I told him they're going to Kentucky. He's not pretty pissed at me. I thought it was pretty funny
