ATLANTA -- Embattled New York Knicks coach Isiah Thomas said he is not a candidate for the Indiana University job.
Thomas, whose Knicks have lost seven of eight and 14 of 16, has a 53-102 record in two seasons with the team. Though he helped Indiana win the 1981 NCAA championship, Thomas has never coached in college.
He indicated the Hoosiers haven't consulted him about becoming their head coach.
"No, I have a job," Thomas said before the Knicks played the Atlanta Hawks on Sunday.
Thomas, also the Knicks' team president, said he hopes interim coach Dan Dakich is named full-time at Indiana.
