[QUOTE="ThatGuy, post: 922687, member: 3440"] This. As I evaluated candidates in my mind, I played a lot of “what’s the worst that could happen?” This is why Deion was a non-starter for me from the beginning. We can’t risk our program on a high risk, high reward candidate right now. We don’t have a savings account to bail us out if it doesn’t work. But looking at the program as a whole, I started thinking, “What’s the best that could happen?” Key was the only candidate for whom both winning and losing have tenable outcomes. Don’t get me wrong - I don’t want the former of your scenarios to come to pass - but if it does, hiring Key leaves us in a much better place to build a sustainable program moving forward. It’s almost as if - shockingly - our AD had a strategy in hiring him. That’s a welcome change. Either way, I’m not convinced the latter won’t come to pass. We have a huge upside, and a great safety net. That’s why the more I consider this hire, the more I like it. [/QUOTE]
