Kevin Greene Hired

really?

huh, for some reason i thought slowik came after bates and before sanders

Yeah, Sanders was the hire after Bates resigned after he was passed up for the HC job. McCarthy hired Sanders for reasons of continuity, specifically that Sanders could run the same defensive system Bates was running.

In part, some of the defensive turn-around under Bates was attributed to the fact that players finally got used to a system, instead of having to learn a new one every year. We'll see if that excuse creeps up again.

Edit: Sanders' mediocrity (and lack of resume when he got hired) was a large part of why people were worried that McCarthy would cop out and go for a "continuity hire" when picking the new defensive staff. Thankfully, he has not.

Happy about this hire. Don't care that he doesn't have much experience. Probably just wants to get into coaching. Certainly has the experience in the position!

You are speaking metaphorically, of course?!

By any means necessary.
