Skiles to Coach Milwaukee

Just four days after firing head coach Larry Krystkowiak, Milwaukee has hired Scott Skiles to be his replacement.

According to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinal, the franchise had their sights set on Skiles all along:

"(Milwaukee) immediately focused their coaching search on Skiles, who led (Chicago) to three consecutive 40-plus victory seasons, including a 49-33 record during the 2006-’07 season. But when Chicago started slowly with a 9-16 mark this season, Skiles was fired on Christmas Eve."
