he is having second thoughts and asked if Orlando would release him from his contract so he can return to Florida.

You almost have to release him if you are the Magic, you dont want a coach whose heart is not in it controlling your franchise.

Interesting ripple effect on this one...Anthony Grant (VCU) had a meeting set up with Jeremy Foley and was the odds on favorite to get the job...now VCU fans are calling into sports talk shows around here and saying they don't want him if he's not going to be around for very long...pretty interesting.

I know that he will be criticized for the move if he makes it, but it's hard to blame a guy for not wanting to tarnish his "legacy" by just staying in college. It's worked out for a number of other coaches.

Sounds like the perfect place to trade Kobe. Although I'd still like to see Kobe shipped to Miami.

What could Orlando offer besides Dwight Howard? And if you are Orlando, why would you offer Dwight Howard?
