I don't see it this way at all.  Red will be given ample time as a first time head coach, he must show a level of competence for sure but he will given some time to put the parts and pieces together and put his systems in place.  he isn't inheriting what Coach K left behind at Duke.  He has to rebuild not carry on.

And yes there will be growing pains. John W has proven to be reasonable and patient if anything in these situations.  If Red doesn't work out which he may very well not it won't be just a couple guys covered in dorito dust with tin foil hats on in their Mom's basement calling for his head, it will be very clear to everyone that this isn't going to work out.  He will be given every opportunity to succeed though, to think he will get a quick hook I think his unreasonable considering where and who he is working for.   There needs to be a baseline of competence, accountability, and discipline established though as well.  Certainly a bunch of off court stuff will not bode well which I do not anticipate.
