Quote:Whose whining?? I'm sorry if you don't wanna read statements that are true about Caldwell.. But then again I'm not sorry.. Their were better coaches out there back then that were better then Gus, but I'm not about to go there.. Because he's gone.. My point is a real GM or hell a good Gm doesn't need all these advisors, and search firms, and people to help them do their job.. I'm not knocking Caldwell or Khan for bringing in people to help.. Its just not a good look as a Gm in my opinion...

 

That whole Forbes article up there is about how successful that firm and Jed Hughes in particular have been helping teams find and acquire their new leadership. It seems that this is a new standard practice, and when you consider the investment it makes perfect sense. Like I said, if they didn't do something like this we'd get a dozen Dead Zone threads about how they were teh dumbz for not doing it. But let's not let that get in the way of wild speculation, that's what we do best! 

 

Merry Christmas to ya Yo, hope you have a great one today!
