Oh. Yeah. Right.

The NMSU men's basketball coach has been offered a job as head coach for the Sacramento Kings. Coach Reggie Theus says, "When I got involved in the interview process, I really didn't give it much thought. It was just a chance to experience an NBA interview, and I never thought about this really happening."

Come on, Coach Theus. Who are you trying to kid? Nobody goes to an interview for the fun of it. Second, how could you not think about it? At the very least, you had some phone conversations with these people. Maybe they even flew you to Sacramento to meet in person. It's not as if they pulled your name out of a hat.

It's the first day of summer, and we're in the middle of the Chihuahuan Desert. A snow job isn't going to work.
