Many recognized that it might take Red a year or two to get his system in place and get his players in place. We're now staring a 6 year postseason drought in the face. If we move to Hopkins, there is no doubt in my mind that the fanbase would rally behind him -- but this time without the same level of patience. ESPECIALLY because our last in-house hire was such a spectacular flop. I think the fanbase would be more jaded this time around, and unwilling to afford the same patience as with Red. [/QUOTE]
