Isiah Thomas hasn't said whether or not he's interested in a coaching job with the Indiana Hoosiers, but he also claims that the university hasn't contacted him, according to the Associated Press.
Thomas said he hopes Coach Dan Dakich is given the full-time job.
"He's done an excellent job," Thomas said. "He understands the program. He's been intimately involved on the coaching side and also on the playing side."
"Of all the former players, he'd definitely have the support of mine and others. I hope he's someone they do name as the coach of Indiana."
