Florida International Wants Isiah Thomas

Florida International wants Isiah Thomas to be their next head coach, according to a report by Andy Katz.

Sergio Rouco was fired on Monday by FIU, and sources confirm that athletic director Pete Garcia made calls within the conference recently to check on the viability of hiring Thomas.

A source close to the situation said that if Garcia is unable to reach a deal with Thomas this week, he would likely pursue another coaching candidate to replace Rouco.
