Trying to keep it rolling without Payton and everyone else is the WRONG move imo

I think it's going to be Allen.

Loomis is an older guy. He's been around a lot of these guys more than a decade. He's probably nearing retirement himself.

I seriously doubt he's going to shake it up and go with a brand new guy his last few years.

He's comfortable and will make the comfortable hire, which is Allen.

I don't agree with it, but I'm also not a quasi owner of the team like Mickey is.

And this all seems to have maybe been put in motion last year.

Remember when Nielsen was all set to go to LSU? Payton said nah, man stick around. He probably had an inkling that he was out and Nielsen would be in line to replace DA.

I don't think Payton would retire if he thought his staff was going to get fired.
