Quote:That's the root of the problem. It seems like we've taken a step back towards the "committee" approach we abandoned years ago.


What's old is new again. Repeating the same organizational mistakes.


So, Caldwell is now not responsible, but instead it's Tom.


Tom says it's Khan's team, not his.


We're all back to "team" (the Jack/Shack/Gene "committee" approach) without individual accountability.


So, don't be surprised if fans start to pick the person they like/dislike to assign praise/blame.


As Vic would say, "watch this." If you hadn't noticed, it's already started.

Had to work out if this is a TTR post or not.


I don't think its as complicated as you make out. Marrone deserves blame or praise for all the on the field stuff. It will be quite easy to see his work taking place.


For the off field stuff Coughlin is the head honcho and signs off on everything so he deserves the blame or praise.


Look at the Miami Heat. Pat Riley is the team president , Andy Elisburg is the GM and Eric Spoelstra is the HC. Pat doesn't do much draft stuff but he signs off on everything and has his stamp all over the organization. When people talk about the Heat the only two guys you hear about are the great work Spoelstra does or how Pat does running the team. Its the exact same structure as here.
