Maybe but I'm also being told he was forced to both hire AND ask CW and ZE to move on.

Okay, if you're going to look at it that way, then Freeze only let go of a couple coaches, which would be a normal amount of turnover. Roberts by all accounts was an a-hole that other coaches felt demeaned by. And Montgomery's offensive philosophy didn't mesh with Freeze's.

Building a coaching staff is like these all-star football games. Each player has a great resume or potential, but when they're assembled into a team, sometimes that team is shite. Freeze is just removing the parts of the team that aren't working instead of hoping they'll start working better in year 2.

That's fair and let's hope it's a quick year 1 fix. It definitely seemed all season that HF was incredibly unimpressed with Montgomery's game planning and philosophy. Just would have thought they could have figured that out on the front end. Kinda just hate this is happening now with a couple recruiting battles going on and the NS retirement.

Would just be nice to kind of have our ducks in a row but I don't think this is auto-doom for the HF era.
