No Interim Needed For Corbin

(JIM URQUHART/The Associated Press) 
Tyrone Corbin, the new head coach of the Utah Jazz, addresses the media after longtime coach Jerry Sloan announced his resignation Thursday in Salt Lake City.
The Jazz knew who they wanted as their next head coach long before Jerry Sloan left.  Tyrone Corbin, Sloan's assistant, is not interim by design, according to Greg Miller CEO of the Jazz.  Corbin, was as his predecessor a class act on Thursday, calling the moment bittersweet.  Corbin will have little time to waste in preparing for his first game as the Jazz tip off against the Suns tonight in SLC at 8:30 PM local time.  It is certainly sad for Jazz fans, to see a legend go, but there seems to be anticipation about Corbin.
