Thomas is 7-18 at FIU this season.
Jeff Goodman has just broken this story, which seems like something so filled with meta it couldn’t be true.
The Los Angeles Clippers want Isiah Thomas to take over their organization.
Rumors are now beginning to swirl that Thomas could abandon his proud, padlocked post at Florida International for NBA waters — if he wanted to.
According to a source close to the situation, the Clippers have reached out to Thomas — who coached the Indiana Pacers and also the New York Knicks — to take over coaching, general manager and president duties.
Jesus! ALL THREE?!? Surely, Donald Sterling must be joking.
Isiah Thomas, coach.
Isiah Thomas, general manager.
Isiah Thomas, president.
Donald Sterling, comedy screenwriter.
What is Mike Dunleavy thinking right now?
No word from Thomas yet, but if it’s true, he’s an absolute goner. Coaching at a bottom-tier Division I program or getting a third chance to blow up an NBA franchise?
The choice is so easy only Thomas himself could probably screw it up.
If he does leave less than a year into his five-year deal, well, Isiah, they hardly knew ya anyway.
