No one can predict the future, but we also don't have to pretend to be excited about the hire when there's clearly not much to point to that would get someone excited.
I'm sure there are a handful of posters who may have looked into it, but "everyone" is definitely a stretch. And for those who looked into said resume... Did they look at the players he had at the time? The coaching philosophy of those higher up on the tree than him? His injury reports? How much freedom he had to coach the way he wanted to coach? His influence on scheming and playcalling? I'm guessing the people who took all of that into account in forming these opinions is even smaller.
And I'll freely admit to not knowing a thing about any of these... but that's my point! Most of us have no real clue at this point, so let's just hold off until at least training camp before condemning the hire.
I mean if people were expecting them to hire the reincarnated spirit of Bob Ryan or to actually call back JDR at this point, I don't know what to tell you, but who else were they going to hire that would be any better than this guy?
