I thought'd we see something tonight. But more likely it will be tomorrow I think
You are right.

Is it possible for most fans to ever give Danny credit for anything? He made a list and interviewed every person on it. Spags was a hot coach and he wanted to interview him. Rules said he couldn't until this week. He wasn't impulsive or splashy. In the end, nobody topped his initial #1 choice but he absolutely interviewed enough canidates and gave them a fair shot. In his opinion, he is bringing in who he thinks is the best option (and don't think for a moment that he wouldn't terminate a fresh contract and pay an assistant that Spags didn't want and then hire who he did).

As for Fassel; while not my first choice (or top five really), his players liked him. Right now we don't need a hard ass. We have guys who just want to follow a true leader to the SB. Give him a chance, guys. Remember his "garauntee" in 2000? It took balls to give it and his guys fought their guts out to back him up.

Let's get behind our FO and new staff and try to look for some positives here.
