I think the risk more the other way. If Conroy isn't being given the autonomy to do this the way he thinks it should be done - will he not want to extend.
For instance, if based on the start, he goes to ownership and says they need to lean into the bad season, and they say "no - you have to figure out how to turn this" he could say eff this.
Though I strongly believe, based on the team's actions more than their words, that they will be OK with a horrible season, and Conroy will be extended before Xmas.
