I understand and even agree with the logic, but that doesn't change what Gayle Benson said.
Gayle said she took fan displeasure and player feedback into account. And she said that she communicated with several players before she fired him. Maybe she wasn't telling the truth, but she said it.
But, I do agree that they should not make decisions based on what fans want and clearly Loomis did not want to do that and I doubt Moore would do that either.
