Jazz To Hire Quin Snyder

The Utah Jazz have named Atlanta Hawks assistant coach Quin Snyder their new head coach, the team announced Friday.

Snyder will receive a three-year deal with a team option for a fourth season to replace Tyrone Corbin on the Utah bench, sources said.

Jazz CEO Greg Miller: "He has an impressive basketball pedigree, including more than a decade of head-coaching experience that positions him well to succeed in the Jazz organization. We look forward to Quin's contributions both on the court and in the community."

Tweet from Paul Millsap:
Congratulations Quin Snyder for being named Head coach of the @utahjazz!!! The Jazz are getting a great coach and person.

To be honest, I can't remember that I ever heard that name before...
I think it's far more interesting that the Cavs try to snatch David Blatt from Tel Aviv.

Tough gig with the Jazz in a rebuilding phase, but best of luck to him.
