The case was closed when CMA was fired. Our preseason rating was based on the fact that King and a few others were coming back and it was assumed that he would do well under CDH’s system. That proved not to be the case, King was unable to hit receivers deep and the defense leaked like a sieve; meanwhile the OL was losing players right and left.
CDH was trying to build a team for the long haul, not sacrifice the future for a few more wins that would have brought what, another nobody bowl? It is never a good thing to base a coach on his first year. Would you have been down on Sampson because his first year here produced a losing season?
Hermann was eager to get out of here as fast as he could because he knew the cupboard was getting bare. Major was left holding the bag and the bottom fell out of it. Now CDH is our coach and I will support him as long as he is here, which I hope will be a long time because of his successes.
