...but from what I'm reading about the Marvin extention a big reason it happened was thr overall player support. If his players want him back who am I to argue.

Players want him back because they're comfortable with him. Isn't that the same reason Mikey wants him back? The last thing you want after consecutive losing seasons is comfort. This whole team needs to be very uncomfortable with their situation. Nothing motivates more than feeling your job is at stake.

Bingo.

I think this is Marvin’s last run. I think he’s supposed to build the team (again) and groom his own replacement. I think mike wants a long term plan in place so he can hand the team over with a clear conscience.

Totally just my opinion and based off nothing, but it’s the direction I felt we were going all year. This is Marvin’s two week notice... it just happens to be two years.

Wasn't that supposed to happen with Hue? So what...we have to find a perfect in-house replacement candidate, and hope that he isn't plucked from the staff before Marv's contract expires? Or hope that Marv is in the mood to hand over the keys? Seems hopeless. If we win, coaches will be plucked. If we lose, we won't want the in-house candidates.
