Kelvin Sampson to replace Rambis? (with poll!)


Via Dave and Trent on KFAN this morning, Ken Berger at CBSSports.com reports that Rambis could be out at the end of the season, and the Wolves are howling for Kelvin Sampson.

Though management won't make a final decision until the season is over, sources say there is significant push from within to make a coaching change. Atop the Timberwolves' list of potential successors is Bucks assistant Kelvin Sampson, one of the people with knowledge of the organization's thinking said. With a young roster clearly lacking in veteran leadership, some members of the Minnesota brain trust believe the team needs a more vocal, energetic coach on the sideline.

He's been a very good college coach with a history of overly-enthusiastic recruiting. He's served as an assistant for the Spurs and is currently with the Bucks (perhaps teaching and coaching defense would be a strength).

What do you think?
