I actually think we should buck the trend and fire and hire now. Why wait? Hopefully Ralph can part with some cash, make a big offer to a good experienced head coach and bring them in now.
I say that it will be a good thing because it will really give them more time to take notes on the team and front office. Knowing without a doubt who should stay, go or be in a different position. Of course, that would also mean this HC is also GM.
Why limit the time to make BIG changes to only the offseason?
