Jacque Vaughn returning to the Spurs....

[texbound]

as a coach

Former Spurs point guard Jacque Vaughn is expected to serve as an assistant coach for the team's summer league squad next month in Las Vegas, an endeavor he might hope to parlay into a full-time gig next season. The Spurs are in search of a replacement for long-time assistant coach/head video coordinator James Borrego, who left after seven seasons to join Monty Williams' new staff in New Orleans.

You need to fix that title bro..its too early for shit like that.

[coyotes_geek]

Good move IMO. Vaughn sure knows the game.

[bigfan]

Sure, why not? Seemed like a pretty sharp guy when he was here.

[elbamba]

Good move IMO. Vaughn sure knows the game.

I echo the sentiment. He was a smart basketball player who managed to play 10+ seasons in the league despite being very limited in talent and ability.

[mattyc]

Can't hurt. He was always a bit of a student of the game.

[Solid D]

Summer League assistant coach does not necessarily mean anything.

[8FOR!3]

Thank God it's as a coach, you scared the shit out of me. Smart move, he knows basketball and will make a good coach.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Summer League assistant coach does not necessarily mean anything.

This.
But hey, I liked Vaughn. Not necessarily when he was on the court, but he's a good and smart guy. I would think he could land a gig after this.

[SpursFan0728]

As long as he is not the shooting coach I am fine.

[Danny.Zhu]

You scared the hell out of me.

[Agloco]

lol. great thread title. It's sure to ruffle some feathers with all of the RJ news and such. :lol

[timvp]

Head coach of the Toros wouldn't be a bad way to kickstart a coaching career . . .

[KuntryDude]

You need to fix that title bro..its too early for shit like that.

:lol

It did wonders for Quinn Snyder's career.

[rayray2k8]

goddamn, this thread I'm sure scared a few people. :lol
but I will rage if Bonner returns. :pctoss

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

I kind of figured he would be on someone's staff already. Cool stuff.

[Spurs Brazil]

Good idea

[urunobili]

Love the fit :tu

He knows the Spurs system relatively well, and is someone that Pop trusts :tu

[tdunk21]

would like to see bruce as one of our assistant coaches(defense coach)

[spursfan1000]

Not bad, as long as he dosen't return as a player.

[angelbelow]

pretty awesome. wasnt he voted as player most likely to become a coach one of the years he was with us? excited to see what he can bring to the table.

[silverblackfan]

I like this news, but agree the title lured me in. :lol Vaughn always seemed to understand the game well. It should be a good fit.

[CGD]

Tremendous if true.

[lefty]

Fuck



Now George Hill is gonna be unspectacular and unathletic

[ChuckD]

As long as he is not the shooting coach I am fine.

He might make a good one. You know the old saying...

Those who can, do
Those who can't, teach

:lol

[dbestpro]

This is great news for Hill. He finally has someone who can teach him how a PG is suppose to make the players around him better.

[timtonymanu]

I've always liked Vaughn ...... as a coaching type.

Hopefully Temple can learn from him.

[Arrowch4]

Good move IMO. Vaughn sure knows the game.

He knows Defence that is for sure. besides, I always like it when a Jayhawk is on the team. I wish we still had another Jayhawk.(Gooden)
