I guess this would be the approach for a GM who didn't have a good idea about what the hell he is doing, and was just throwing ideas at the wall hoping something will stick. I think Treliving has a better handle on the problem and it's solution. Unfortunately, it may be a more difficult fix than a new coach or a trade.
Where to start with this? Thanks for letting me know that hiring Q was impossible. Could that have been why I said a guy "like" Q... had I meant they should have hired him specifically I would have said that... but I guess ignoring that made it easier to stick with your typical condescending posting style. How does hiring a coach with pedigree after you just fired a coach without one mean that management doesn't know what they're doing? Isn't that just simple problem solving? At the very least it is just a better hiring practice(resumes seem to be important for that process). I'm not even saying Peters should be fired, I think in hindsight it would have been a good idea to go with a proven coach the second time around.
