This is just so huge, it can't be overstated. It's the crucial systemic change most of us thought would never happen.
I'd love to know when this was discussed. I'll bet anything it was worked out during Joe Douglas' negotiations. "If Gase succeeds, fine, but if not then we do it my way."
Chris said during the press conference that it really doesn't change things that much. And I tend to agree with him.
Don't get me wrong, I'm happy we did it. But yes, it can be overstated, and calling it a "crucial systemic change" is overstating it.
If you have the right people in place, the reporting structure is irrelevant. The problem is we have had bad GMs and coaches.
