    Well, I disagree Nico. I think he would boost revenues tremendously.

    Jackson adds cred, he could be a big influence in who comes here as a coach, as well as future players

    All y'all are getting way too carried away with his name factor.

    Portland doesn't magically become a better free agent destination just because they have a HOF coach in their front office.

    I just don't see Jackson as President material. I could picture him as GM/assistant coach to Brian Shaw I've hard suggested. Sounds like he wants cushy basketball job to me. He'd just be getting in Olshey's way if he was named president, and that would suck. I like what Olshey is doing right now.

    I could be wrong but my understanding is that Phil Jackson is not well liked. Respected as a coach...yes. But not liked. So I do not see how he would attract coaches or players to Portland.

    I find it hard to believe that Jackson wants anything to do with Portland, considering his general disdain for Portland and rain after a Laker loss in Portland. How do you hire a guy who's publically talked shit about Portland for so many years? I'd really like to see PA take a pass on Jackson. Let Olshey do his thing with this team and build it right, not having to worry about another ego above him to deal with IMO.

    Phil's always been an amateur satirist.
