As a CEO you often times have to make hard decisions

Why would he ever fire his personally groomed guys who've followed him to every stop he's been to.

He's got to gut this team conceptually on offense, Let him start with that.
 
No way will Manny let Bandy and Patke go. You keep these guys, and obviously you relegate them probably back to their original spots.
My take -- Manny keeps his hands on the D, and promotes Simpson to Co-DC, while keeping him on the DL.
 
If Manny is going to succeed as a first time head coach at one of the most visible programs in the country, he is going to need qualified and experienced top-notch coordinators on both sides of the ball. He is going to have far more on his plate than he realizes. He can’t be baby sitting an unqualified pair of guys running the defense. We need HC quality coordinators running BOTH sides of the ball.

Something else that is being overlooked is the additional overhauls that are needed within the program in the medical department and in support staff both for game/statistical analysis and recruiting. We can’t be combatting other teams recruiting with a 500 person call center while we are doing it with one guy carrying a beeper.

This dude has his hands full. He needs support that he may not even realize exists.

Just one more reason why Blake needed to at least interview everyone he could possibly talk to. You learn a lot in an interview. BJ could have learned a LOT about where we need to get better and it goes way beyond just who sits behind the HC desk.

Agree with most of this. Really hoping Manny hires a DC with his same philosophy so he can truly focus on being the head coach, recruiter, face of the program. Not sure any of the guys on the defensive staff are qualified to be DC at this point.
