And that's fair ... I certainly don't have insider information that says he's a boat anchor. I just wonder sometimes when former players get this "should be GM" tag when they really haven't done anything.
He certainly could be a budding star.
The one thing with names coming up though, how much of that is the next big guy and how much of that is a media guy or two just posting assistant GM names out of a hat?
