It was reported around the time of the Rivera hiring that he was going to be expected to produce results quickly, and consistently.
I don't think year one will produce any sort of results, and it would be unfair to expect his first year to be successful after him being tasked with repairing decades of rot. I see a 5-11 / 6-10 team but one that is hopefully growing and showing signs of improvement.
I do think he will be expected to make the playoffs by year two.
I think if by season 3 we are regressing, then Rivera will be fired at the end of the season.
I do think he gets three full seasons before he is evaluated. If we are showing improvement, then sure, keep him on board. But if we are regressing or just flat out sucking, like 3-4 wins a season, then he is gone.
Yeah, I got a real "gun to his head" vibe at that intro press conference too.
