It's their P&L so whatever. But I think you have to pay for talent to guide your $80M investment. Seems dumb to skimp on this.

Even Tre was a project. And like others have said, his time might be up just as he is starting to figure it out.

Seems more and more like owners might be the problem. There is a preponderance of circumstantial evidence.

It doesn't really add up logically though. Why would they be okay with spending on player contracts, going after free agents, spending to the cap, but then hiring a more reputable coach is going to break their bank? I suppose it could be true, but it just doesn't make sense. Isn't the more likely scenario that Treliving just has his vision with what he wants in a coach, and none of them have worked out? I don't think ownership was behind him not interviewing several candidates etc. He seems to just think he knows what makes a good diamond in the rough coach and goes with that.
