Well that's what I was saying. They wanted him, he wasn't ready, they had to move on. Then when the team imploded he was the guy if he was willing and this time he was wiling.
I was only contesting JayRandom's insinuation that there was a plan to hire Sutter at a later date when Sutter was ready, with Ward being a placeholder. That would be a ridiculous agreement to have in place and one that ownership would likley not be on board for.
