I get that in this current climate the owners may have said no to a more expensive coach, but this still lands on Treliving at the end of the day. If we have an internal cap he could still choose to spend a million under the cap and use the difference on a coach. The coaching decisions are fully on him, with maybe a little grey area with the Ward hire due to the lack of revenue.

For the most part I like Treliving and I think there are a number of things he does really well, but at seven years in these results speak for themselves.

We had that poll on here in the off season of whether or not we should keep Ward, and something like 85% of us said no. So it’s not like this was some unexpected outcome.

I really want Treliving to succeed, but it’s pretty hard to make an argument for why he should stay at this point. Of course it doesn’t really matter though, because Treliving and Ward are both here for the season at the very least.
