<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Scott Skiles will be named the head coach of the Chicago Bulls on Friday, ESPN has learned. Skiles, 39, was 116-79 as coach of the Suns from 1999-01, and was 5-8 in the playoffs. But there reportedly was friction between him and his players, and he stepped down in February 2002. He hasn't coached since.</div> <font size="1"><font color="DimGray">Skiles</font></font> Full Story
He's a stickler for accuracy, very hard taskmaster. There are a few whispers around that some Chicago players aren't Skiles fans, but he's the man to get that team in line. That is if the players respond to him.
<u>ATTENTION BULLS FANS!</u> Don't be surprised if you see any of the following names on your regular season or summer league roster in the near future - A.J. Granger Marcus Taylor Mateen Cleaves Charlie Bell Scott Skiles will likely give all of the names above a shot to be a Bull. He pretty much did the same with the Suns. He likes Michigan State players since he is a Michigan State graduate. I remember seeing A.J. Granger and Charlie Bell on the Suns roster once. It was quite comical. Anyway, that's off topic. My apologizes, Skiles is a great addition.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting beasly3:</div><div class="quote_post">I personally like Mateen Cleaves, so I wouldn't mind it.</div> Me too, he'd be a pretty decent pick-up (i think, he has potential just never got the chance to prove himself) Or he could be a complete bust. I just dont know
