I never saw anything credible regarding that rumor and he only took Tierney, who was the QB coach here (and there) and Bobby Johnson, who everyone wanted gone. And there was nothing weird about moving on from Frazier as most everyone wanted him gone/wanted McD to call plays. Farwell screwed-up the KO, so he was basically fired. As for Hall, I have no idea what happened there, but I read his wife didn't want to live in Buffalo anymore. Sounds as plausible as anything else.
