Went with 2 bullets.
If fan reaction and apathy had one iota to do with Mike's decision to move on from Marvin, then he knows he's on notice. Automatic reaction will be that he doesn't care, but I have doubts this time around that I've already outlined (big TV ad campaign this year, season ticket holders defecting).
Bring an internal candidate does nothing to get people re-invested if that's the goal. Hiring certain internal candidates might even make it worse. I think a Lazor or Hue hire would be the death of this franchise in Cincinnati, literally. The team would be a bigger laughingstock than it already is and would get absolutely put through the wringer by the national media. After that, the chronic apathy would continue.
He's not just apathetic if he makes an internal hire. He's a dumbass.
