Cleveland Cavaliers head coach John Beilien is considering tending his resignation, according to reports.
Beilein left a prime college coaching situation at Michigan to take over in Cleveland, but the adjustment to managing professionals has proven rocky.
The 67-year-old is overseeing a team with the worst record in the Eastern Conference, and needed to defuse a tough locker room situation after claiming he misspoke in telling his team they were no longer playing like a bunch of "thugs".
Beilein had been hired by the Cavs in May, reportedly to a five-year deal.
