Question for those who believe we should retain Ryan Poles for next season (alien.top)

Assume we fire Flus and Poles stays and is allowed to pick another coach.

What is the plan if the team is terrible again? Do you fire Poles and the coach (after just 1 season)? Do you give both an extra season (which would be 3 horrendous seasons in a row for Poles)? Do you fire Poles but make sure the new GM retains the HC we just hired?

What is the plan?

This is the problem…you can’t hold this regime accountable after 1.5 seasons. I know everyone wants to can Eberflus, including me. But they likely won’t. Year one was clearing the roster. Year two is in progress. Year three you should see the plan coming together and year 4 is competitive. Remember, Poles has preached he wants to build this team for sustained success. That doesn’t happen in 1.5 seasons. Now, to answer your question: IF I assume Flus gets fired (which I don’t) and Poles picks a new coach and they still stink, you give him year two with the new coach. This fallacy that teams are world beaters after 2 years is ridiculous.
