Danny Smith and BJ are tight. BJ brought Danny into camp.
Given BJ is just chilling right now in Scottsdale and Miami etc – while Jake is working hard in PR makes me think BJ is out.

User @jamesyplonk felt that BJ Flores might be out of the team as well.
Danny was great but it's time for either young blood or more established veterans for head coaching gigs.
