Krystkowiak saga goes on as Bucks fire Stotts

The idea that former Montana Grizzlies head coach Larry Krystkowiak will take over as the next coach is starting look more and more inevitable. After news that the Bucks front office met late last night to discuss making Krystkowiak head to keep him from leaving, current head coach Terry Stotts has been fired.

Here's Krystkowiak's comments on Utah's efforts to land him:

"I'm not going to talk about that at all," Krystkowiak said earlier today of published reports linking him to the Utah job, vacant since Ray Giacoletti resigned on March 2. "I'm an assistant coach with the Bucks; that's what I can say.

"I'm looking forward to finishing the season out (with the Bucks)."

This sounds kind of similar to what he said when there were rumors swirling that he would be leaving the University of Montana.

After all that's happened in this situation so far, it would be hard to imagine anyone other than Krystkowiak taking over as the head coach of the Bucks.
