Quote:So we're in total agreement, then, having Gus as the head coach isn't some kind of advantage when it comes to signing quality free agents.

 

Glad we're clear and in agreement now.

Nobody is claiming it's an advantage or that it was the primary reason.  Money is always going to be the motivating force, especially for guys coming off rookie contracts.  But, you're dismissing the fact that the players who have signed have indeed referenced that Gus was part of the appeal of coming here.  You dismiss that because it doesn't fit your narrative, and you portray yourself as if you actually know what kind of coach he is behind the scenes when you really don't.
