Yeah nostalgia plays a role I'm sure. For me, it's certainly in there somewhere. But there is no more accomplished coach available.
And unlike other former coaches, I don't feel like he wore out his welcome. He only coached two full seasons with the team. A beauty playoff run and a division win, that ended with a pathetic game 7 showing in the first round. Take away that game 7, and he simply had nothing but success coaching this franchise.
Darryl with the right assistants makes a ton of sense to me.
