Iggy Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I saw on the scroll last night that Alex was named an assistant for the Jazz. I always liked him and used to think he'd be an excellent successor to RM some day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLUMedBilliken15 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Speaking of old assistant coaches, Chris Harriman recruited Dante Exum (predicted to be top 5 in the draft. Kid from australia played against Loe on the national team) to Nebraska very shortly after Leaving SLU. You would have to think that SLU would have had a great chance at landing him had Harriman stayed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACE Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Speaking of old assistant coaches, Chris Harriman recruited Dante Exum (predicted to be top 5 in the draft.

You would have to think that SLU would have had a great chance at landing him had Harriman stayed... How do you figure? I just read an article where his dad said he would have played at Indiana. They didn't even mention Nebraska in his top 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crymdg2 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Loe is from New Zealand, Exum from Australia. Don't think they would've played on the national team together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kshoe Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 You said he played AGAINST Loe, not with him. He changed his post. Look at Ace's response to see the original language. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slufan13 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Jensen is the assistant for the Jazz and the former coach and player for Majerus. Sorry if everyone knew this. I've spent the last week trying to explain world cup group play to coworkers so I never know if people know what's going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thetorch Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Pity that Jensen has to work for scumbag Pretty Quin. Jensen has really made a name for himself in the NBA. He's on the same track as Snyder is. He'll be interviewing for head jobs in a couple years and will be a HC in the league within 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeseman Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I am sorry but the way Alex J left always left a bad taste in my mouth - I know you have to do what is best for you but still especially since RM gave him his start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt but don't think for a second that prospective employers vale the fact that Jensen left his mentor for greener pastures at a difficult time. That's how it is in the coaching profession. It worked out for everyone involved I think too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billiken Rich Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Is he still looking for that one armed wife killer? David Janssen I loved that. On a slightly political note, WHY IN GOD'S NAME DID THEY HAVE TO RUIN THE TOMMY LEE JONES VERSION BY MAKING AN EVIL CORPORATION THE BAD GUY! Pissed my off. Still does. Best line: "I don't care." Tommy lee Jones to Harrison Ford before Ford jumps into the spillway........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
