Somewhat off topic, but I had the privilege of watching him play in person when I was a student at Iowa.

The best ever Hawkeye BB player...ever.

He's done well for himself, rather than expecting pity because of his knee situation. Good for him!

Join. 1) The best ball handler I ever saw in an Iowa uniform. Back when teams ran the 4-corner, you couldn't get the ball from him. 2) His teardrop over the big man down the lane was pure sweetness. Magic Johnson always spoke highly of him as a player and was instrumental in him coming to the Lakers. Ronnie made the most of his opportunity with L.A.

Good luck,Ronnie...also saw him play...quicksilver was a word that always came to mind.

Thats not a job I would want. Robert Sarver is one of the cheapest owners in any sport. The Suns have been so close for the last 5-6 years and he refuses to go even one cent over the luxury tax. They have traded first round picks for nothing just to avoid taking on additional salary. Plus the Suns are an older team with a nice bench but they could really fall off in the next year or two, especially if Amare leaves.

and what job do you currently have that would make you turn down this offer?

I never cared for the Suns, but if they hire Ronnie, I'll have to root for them.

I heard the only way he gets the job is if he is on Hoibergs speed dial

I watched Ronnie play. My favorite Hawkeye player of all time. The smoothest moves I've ever seen driving the lane. Man could he frustrate the opposition. Late in the game everyone in the house knew what he was going to do. Didn't matter.
