I'm saying (and you don't have to agree with the logic, all good) ...
that they gave a pretty good share to their back up up to the end of February when it appeared neither guy were going. With 5-6 weeks in the season they picked the player most likely to be a competent starter.
Given the resumes, I don't think that's much of a stretch at all.
So no I wouldn't say Vladar had the better chance of getting it done.
