I took all of that to mean he thought they were skilled enough. But he also thought they were a bunch of snowflakes and didn’t work hard enough to be a top caliber team. Which was definitely true. Not true the last 10 games or so though.

Guess we’ll soon see if the tinkering was enough if in fact the are done making moves.
