What are the odds of that happening? Slim to nada. People wanted to keep him out of sentimentality, not sound logic. This is just a fluke case where the safe bet backfired.
I agree mostly, but I wanted to keep him because I'd seen just how bad Ogbuehi was. Nothing sentimental about it, although he was a favorite of mine. They made the correct moves getting his replacements and thinking to move on, they just got incorrect replacements.
