Can only speak for myself but they nailed it out of the park for me. Picked one of the three up and coming guys that were listed back when Feaster was fired, we have an experienced guy to help him so there's no Craig Button fear, and we didn't do either of the two things I really feared ... 1) Hire an ex Flame player 2) Quickly hire a guy that just lost his job somewhere else.

That and I have never seen a Flames move that was so universally applauded.
I'm just not sure who those that don't like this move would have wanted to be hired instead.

If it either Futa, Benning, or Fenton, they all would have the same 'unknown' tag attached to them so unless people on this board know something that the rest of us don't that doesn't seem to be much of a difference.

The overall direction of this move is a good one, hopefully it bears fruit down the road.
