wow thats interesting. he went from an above-average nba player, to being a teacher to little kids (albeit gymnasium teaching). i wish there was a site to see what retired nba players occupations were after they gave up the basketball ghost. can't just kick back for the rest of your life after 33.

Toney not joining Sixers coaching staff
By TOM MOORE

Looks like Andrew Toney won't be joining Maurice Cheeks' coaching staff, after all.

Toney arrived in Philadelphia at the request of Cheeks, his former 76ers' backcourt partner, for several days while the Sixers worked out potential draft picks in late June. But he returned home to suburban Atlanta without signing a contract, apparently because he wanted more money and/or additional responsibility than would accompany being a third or fourth assistant.

It's a shame, would've been a great addition. It'll be interesting to see who they'll hire to finish out the staff.
