Message: [QUOTE="NKR1978, post: 2130427, member: 186"] I think we're overstating the problems caused by uncertainty. K isn't much younger than JB, but they don't have any problems with recruiting because they haven't announced a stupid succession plan that puts an end date on K's tenure. Hop had the opportunity to recruit for himself. He couldn't get it done. Sanctions obviously compounded that a bit, but people want to play for JB. We're probably on the same timeline, but as far as the world knows, JB will be here for at least two more years. And now he can retire quietly at the end of the 2018 or 19 season and instead of passing the job off to someone we'll be able to hire an experienced coach. [/QUOTE]
