Isiah Thomas could land a basketball job on Mars if they found life, or Transformers there. But for know, he’ll start at Florida International University where he was named their newest head coach today.
“An official announcement is expected later Tuesday. Thomas’ representative was in South Florida to finalize the deal, the source said. A source said Thomas was intrigued by FIU’s location in South Florida, its growing football program and the size of its student body (more than 30,000). The source said Thomas was looking for a fresh place to start and that, despite other previous NBA and college opportunities, this is the one that finally piqued Thomas’ interest.”
Given Isiah Thomas’ past problems, I gotta say I’m really happy to see him back in basketball and I’m sure we’ll see him back in the NBA in a few years.
Congrats, Zeke!
