Hard to say but I don’t think Gayle would be wrong to look at the bigger picture of achievement, and I don’t have reason to think Tom wouldn’t have shown patience to the man he hired, and who has had an extended run of success, including a championship.
I think it’s much more likely that Loomis will eventually retire or choose some other role than be fired, and I don’t think he should be fired.
I understand we are all frustrated but I think it’s easy to downplay the accomplishments when things aren’t going well. Like others have said, there was a strong consensus of support for Loomis until this season.
