He was a losing coach when he hired him, and he didn't even go to another regime to learn something new. There was no indicator that he was different than his Oakland experience. I've never been a fan of in-house hires because they rarely work; that's why letting it play out with the deer was illogical. If a person was previously incarcerated, giving someone another chance is fine, but if they start repeating their old ways, it's obvious they haven't learned their lesson. People keep trying to analyze the deer without the proper context; this is who he is. He is a terrible HC. Several guys have gotten fired on their first try.
