Regardless of who gets named official GM, I think Smith has at least earned some time here to work with Ron and prove his worth. And maybe eventually become GM.

I like the idea of hiring an experienced GM and promoting Smith to Asst. GM where he can learn the ropes. Except by doing that, you most likely have to be ready to release/promote him within the next 3 years, after he's learned enough.

It wouldn't be a major blow if he moved on and thrived elsewhere, if they were able to assemble a team here that also thrived.
