    Maybe he will be promoted to Vice President of Coaching and work for Nate. It worked with Penn...

    I'd hate to see this happen but it's a huge opportunity for Monte.

    Now, who would replace him? I'd nominate Gary Payton.

    As much as I'd hate to see it, Monty seems like he deserves a shot at being a head coach.... just not at a dump like Minnesota. Maybe we can get Porter to replace him on staff?

    Maybe KP can give up a 2nd round pick and convince them to take Nate instead?

    Monty for the draft rights to Rubio, I'm down for.

    I really like that idea. I dont want to lose Monty but Porter would be nice on a lot of levels.

    I dont want to see Monty go! From what I've read the players love him. Please Minni, take Dean Demopolis instead!

    HELL NO! Monty is a great guy. The players all respect him and he's a terrific coach. I do know that family comes first with him and they like it in P-Town. Hopefully that's enough for him to stick around! Being a head coach is an amazing opportunity, but I have a feeling he wants to stick around and see all his hard work he's put into this squad succeed!

    The players really seem to like/relate to him, I see him talking to the players going into the games all the time. I'm going to be selfish and hope he doesn't get it but Minny would be smart to hire him.

    I don't want to see Monty OR Dean go anywhere. I want every thing to be perfect and harmonious. Really. I do. Can't we build a wall around Portland and not let any of the talented people that have finally made their way to our fine city EVER leave? Please?

    Does GP have any coaching experience? I like the idea of him mentoring Bayless, at least certainly more then Nate doing it :sigh:.
