GM Candidates

I mean, it's more than just a title.

Duke Tobin in no way is a true GM.  And I suspect he's paid accordingly given that fact.

So for someone who wants the role of a GM, and the pay that comes along with it, then his job wouldn't be one they'd be interested in.  Hell, even other guys looking for "Director" jobs may not want it, as it's not a resume builder and the pay still probably isn't great.

The reason we hear the term GM attatched to Duke Tobin is because we don't have one, and a bunch of people have to take on different elements of that job.  He just gets that title because he's more attatched to player side of it.

Now, you're not wrong about the title meaning little.  I suppose we could call the new hire anything we'd like, and they'd take the job, provided the control and money come along with it.  But until that happens, your pool of candidates is potential scouting directors who want some extra input. John Dorsey isn't interviewing for the role of Duke Tobin.
