When the transfers and coaching moves hit, I had the same anxiety as others following a successful, but inconsistent season. The new coaches show promise, both in their resumes and recruiting areas. Too early to claim "upgrade" but collectively, the hirings have elevated my enthusiasm. Much like Anae and Beck's hiring did last season.
I could lament losing a veteran OC and and an in-demand, young DC., but I prefer to focus on the new, veteran DC and the wisdom his assistants will absorb. And the young OC who finally gets a chance to unveil plans he's developed over the years under Anae. I think Dino's given us a reason to hope for more success this year.
