So maybe my impression is wrong. And maybe I'm really remembering how long he took to make the changes that everybody knew needed making - For instance - it took what seemed like forever to replace Malveto. And how long was he in replacing Crowton (the OC who allegedly was also QB coach, when in fact that was clearly not happening based on visible and statistical QB results - thus the QB coaching position was de facto vacant and everybody who was watching could see that). And it seems like I remember reading threads here asking "when?" would this or that coaching position finally be filled. One of those times it was filled with Malveto.

So forgive me if I'm not as patient as the wise ones here, or uninformed as compared with most of you geniuses, or if I have a wrong impression. Clearly you guys have a far greater ability to discern what is happening at all levels and at all times.

I'm just never totally confident of *CLM's timing in hiring new coaches. Sometimes it is circumstances, sometimes it seems like it's him. Sorry if that bothers you (I am answering a bunch of responses by more ranters here than just yours H-Town, so please bear with me).

For crying out loud Greg Brady, I don't mean you literally want it to happen, just that you have this "impression" in mind and are looking for things to confirm your impression and walla, you find them.

I think here is your disconnect. Are you counting as time to replace the time these guys were on staff and you wanted them gone? That's not what I'm talking about. The fact you (along with many others including me) were unhappy with Crowtons development of QB's is a different issue. You could argue they needed a QB coach, but the fact that they didn't have one does not mean it was an "open" position for a long time. That's a different issue from the current DB coach opening, which is a vacancy they will fill.

There is no need for you to be condescending. Cooper left on what Wednesday night? That there was not a replacement named Thursday morning is not a sign Miles is dragging his feet. I'm not sure how long it was from the departure of Crowton until Krags was hired or if it took a really long time. As for Chavis, iirc he was hired before the we played GT in the CFA bowl. I don't know how much sooner you think he should have been hired.

If we don't have a DB coach by St Pats day, come talk to me about it taking a long time, until then relax and see what happens.
