There's part of me that thinks MB can't be that clueless and out of touch. But then the other part of me knows how stubborn he is.
There are so many ways we, as fans, can run with this up until the decision is announced that it's enough to drive us crazy (those of us that the team hasn't already driven crazy, anyway).
The organization rarely hires a head coach that hasn't previously been a part of this franchise in some capacity. That's bad for those that want Taylor, McDaniels, or Waldron, but good for the Bieniemy camp. Of course, it's also good for Jackson & Joseph. (Honestly, I'm going to dismiss Simmons & Lazor in this equation so one of them will probably end up with the job.)
That said, of the 4 head coaches Mike Brown has hired, the best by a pretty large margin was the only one that had no previous connection to the team. Definitely encouraging in regards to Taylor, McDaniels, & Waldron.
The organization also historically hires first-time head coaches. Good for Bieniemy, Taylor, & Waldron; not so much for Jackson, Joseph, & McDaniels.
In other words, I have no clue how this is going to play out, but I'm doing my best to suppress my pessimistic tendencies and remain open to the possibility that one of those new names is at the top of the team's coaching flowchart very soon.
