Utah Jazz coach Quin Snyder resigns after eight seasons

Utah Jazz coach Quin Snyder has resigned after eight seasons with the franchise, the team announced Sunday.

Snyder had a 372-264 record in his eight seasons with the Jazz, matching the Golden State Warriors' Steve Kerr for the third-longest tenure with a team among active head coaches, trailing only the San Antonio Spurs' Gregg Popovich and Miami Heat's Erik Spoelstra.

After inheriting a franchise coming off a 25-57 season, Snyder played a prominent role in Utah becoming a perennial playoff team. The Jazz have the Western Conference's longest active postseason streak at six years, but Utah has not advanced past the conference semifinals in this era.
