I totally agree with you but it just amazes me the board couldn’t see we were in dire need of a list overhaul. It makes me question whether they see bottoming out still a major issue for a club like ours.
Who says the board couldn't see we needed an overhaul? My understanding is that the board in 2016 did see the need to rebuild and gave Brad Scott carte blanche to cut deep. However, he decided that he could lure in some high priced recruits and free agents instead. When that failed, he went back to the board 18 months later and told them he needed to rebuild. It's not that they disagreed with this assessment, more that they decided he wasn't the man to do it. He had his chance to rebuild and he squibbed it.
