NEW YORK - Larry Brown former Kansas coach of the 1998 NCAA championship team, has been offered a contract by the New York Knicks to become the franchise's 22nd head coach, his agent said July 26.
"An offer has been made, but that doesn't mean a contract has been completed. Nothing has been finalized," said Joe Glass, Brown's longtime agent.
With the 64-year-old Brown, who has coached seven NBA teams and two college teams, the likelihood of a snag can never be underestimated.
"We're making progress, and we're continuing to talk at this point," Knicks spokesman Joe Favorito said.
Glass was not sure when contract negotiations might wrap up.
"Too hard to say," said Glass, 80, whose son has been an agent for several NBA players. "There's no time factor as far as we're concerned. We'll get it done as soon as we get it done."
Brown had dinner the night of July 25 with team president Isiah Thomas and interim coach Herb Williams, a meeting that Brown described as "positive." Brown had been uneasy about the prospect of displacing Williams as coach
VOLLEYBALL
'Hawk invited to train
Freshman volleyball standout Emily Brown was one of 14 girls selected to train with the U.S. Women's Volleyball Junior National Team.
The training session was July 13 through 18 and took place at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo.
Brown, a 6-foot-2 right side hitter/setter from Baldwin City, was invited to attend the training session after a tryout she attended in February. Brown and the other 13 girls from around the United States, are considered alternates for the Junior National Team
The team is coached by Brian Hosefeld from University of Texas, Louella Lovely from
the University of Notre Dame and Ken Ko from the University of Washington.
Brown, who averaged 2.45 digs per game and 2.12 kills per game, trains as a right side/outside hitter at Kansas. While at the training camp Brown was trained as the team's setter, a position she wasn't used to playing.
"I was honored to be invited to the training camp," Brown said. "I was definitely taken out of my comfort zone but I learned a lot and hope to carry the skills I learned with me into next season."
The Junior National Team will compete in the FIVB Junior Women's U-20 National Championships July 23 through 31 in Ankara, Turkey.
