I was thinking about that last night. I like most of the moves that Feaster has done, and i like the supporting cast that he has put around him. That said he accepted ownerships mandate of " trying to make playofs" and spent a lot of their money in doing so. I would add that the mandate probably included re-signing Iggy. If things go really south in the next couple of weeks, he would have probably failed on both fronts.
I do believe that ownership has to change the mandate but i am not sure they will because of the new arena. They might be fine with letting Iggy go but i am not sure the other mandate would change. If they don't like the return they got on Feasters investment and get another GM with the same mandate, what happens to the supporting staff?
They could offer the job to Weisbrod, but he strikes me as a guy that would be up front with them and tell them their mandate is not the way to go. If they get another GM would they keep Weisbrod on knowing that they don't see the team the same way? A new GM would more than likely want to have a supporting cast of his own. Losing Weisbrod would be huge blow to this organization.
It's still early but something to consider.
