Why aren't more fans hoping Danny Ainge is our next AD? He's 65 years old. He could do it for the next 5 yrs right?

Most likely not interested

TNT

I love Ainge. Bonafide BYU legend.

Borg

Feb 12, 1:38pm

But AJ did

TNT

Feb 12, 1:39pm

Know Ainge? Sure. But didn’t know Steve Young. That’s what I said

Borg

Feb 12, 1:41pm

How dare you use that tone

TNT

Feb 12, 1:43pm

That’s what I said…..”Sir”. 😄

Borg

Feb 12, 1:50pm

What are you basing the "AJ had no idea" thing on?

oxcoug

Feb 12, 1:41pm

Probably just the look on AJ's face when it happened

TNT

Feb 12, 1:43pm

Watching the interaction between the two. I could be wrongbut it looked that way

Borg

Feb 12, 1:44pm

Yeah I don't think it's accurate. Nothing suggests he didn't know who Steve Young was.

Hard to tell…you’re probably right

Borg

Feb 12, 1:54pm

AJ's about the most laid back person you will ever meet, especially off the court.

Prospective athletes don't care about who the AD is, but coaches do.

TNT only knew who Tom Holmoe was because of the Halloween costumes

TNT

Feb 12, 1:49pm

Coaches, donors, ESPN/FOX, advertisers etc... That's where the AD matters.

That will be true of every other candidate for the job, as well.

russkiejedi

Yup. Also said that if he’s only good for 5 yrs tops, would suck to start all

Borg

Being a Celtic fan, Ace Dybantsa was impressed by Ainge. Danny's had two heart

Parker Schnabel

If they don't know Steve Young, they probably don't know Holmoe either.

ochobeeguy

Feb 12, 2:45pm

I honestly thought he was closer to 70.

JuicyJam

Feb 12, 1:45pm

Isn't he still busy trying to figure out how to get the Jazz to tank?

John Doe

Feb 12, 1:49pm

You realize Holmoe is 64 right?

ManicBlue

Feb 12, 1:53pm

Yes - why?

HarlemCoug

Feb 12, 1:59pm

and you're suggesting a guy who is 65? Pretty forward thinking.

ManicBlue

Feb 12, 2:01pm

65 is the old 55 right?

TNT

Feb 12, 2:04pm

Hopefully! Replacing a 64 yr old guy with a 65 yr old guy doesn't exactly seem like the way to go though.

ManicBlue

Feb 12, 2:13pm

Would bet that 64 year old guy has another gig within a year.

roseyscenario

Feb 12, 2:22pm

Yeah probably babysitting grandkids

ManicBlue

Feb 12, 2:52pm

Now that would be stressful. He could run BYU athletics out of his hip pocket.

roseyscenario

Feb 12, 2:54pm

Exactly! 65 is age of newly called Apostles. Ainge good for at least 10 yrs. He could take as much time off as he wants.

roseyscenario

Feb 12, 2:17pm

We don't plan to tank any sport and there are no draft picks...wrong job

vabeachcoug

Feb 12, 2:22pm

We are better off with a great AD PLUS Danny Ainge working the circuit from his
