More on Jerry Sloan
Description from Wikipedia:
Gerald Eugene Sloan, better known as Jerry Sloan (born March 28, 1942), is an National Basketball Association coach with the Utah Jazz. He is one of professional basketball's most successful coaches, with a career regular-season win–loss record of 1086–717 (as of the end of the 2007–08 NBA season), placing him fourth on the list of all-time most-winning NBA coaches. Sloan collected his 1,000th career win against the Dallas Mavericks in a 101-79 victory, which made him only the fifth coach in NBA history to surpass this milestone. Sloan is the only coach in NBA history to record 1,000 wins with the same club, having reached that mark on November 7, 2008 with a win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. He has also coached for one team longer than anyone in NBA history. The 2008-09 season will be his 21st season (and 20th full season) at the helm of the Jazz.
After Tom Kelly stepped down as manager of the Minnesota Twins in 2001, Sloan became the longest tenured head coach in major league sports with a single franchise.
