I thought the same before I saw Hoke say CTJ left because he was offered to be a coach on the Canadian national team.

Is he Canadian? Or does that even matter?

Seems a little odd. If it was NBA I could see but I don't know...

Probably doesn't matter. It's a nice job & many national team coaches aren't native to the team they are coaching.

Am I supposed to panic? Crap, I didn't have time for that today, guess I'll have to adjust.

I don't see this as being a negative thing. Person has proven to be a great hire.

Jones may have been wanting to do his own thing, but either way I am appreciative of his work in helping get our basketball program back on the right track.

Where did you read it? If it's al.scum then yeah, I would trust Hoke.

And even if he is leaving looking for an NBA job there is nothing negative about it. I did not reply to your OP because I thought you were being sarcastic. It's crazy to seriously think this is bad for AU.

Well, it's never great when the right hand man, for many years, is leaving your HC's staff.

It is if the guy wants to make a name for himself, especially at a better or higher profile job.

Again. I trust Hoke over that Douche Crepea on anything Auburn related.
