You make it sound like pulling talent out of the portal is as easy as walking thru the aisles at Wegmans and saying I'll take one of those, two of these, and throw in three offensive linemen while we're at it.

There's a reason why we had to pull in six players from junior colleges for this year.  Only one of the six is playing meaningful snaps, and one has already left the program.

Then you go on to say, "a decent hire can at least go 6-6 next season".   So, 6-6 is acceptable?

If 6-6 is acceptable why bother?   
[LIST]
[*]$4 million to cover Dino's exit salary.
[*]$3-$5 million a year for a new coach.
[*]Plus a potential buyout to pull the next coach from his current job.  Which is very likely if you're getting a current HC who didn't just get fired. 
[/LIST]

The bare minimum is going to be $7-$9 million to get a coach who can go 6-6?

We are a confused group of fans.  We don't like the Honda we are currently driving, but we can't afford the truck with four-wheel drive and a king cab we want.
