I don't know if Haley never wanted Weis in the first place
I don't know if Haley thought he wanted a strong coach like Weis and realized he wanted someone more like McCoy
I don't know if Haley was an absolute tyrant that forced Weis out
I also don't know if Weis was unwilling to accept his role as second fiddle
This stuff concerns me, but without the right info, it's hard to say who's really to blame here. Sirius is probably working from the same information.

None of those potential situations look good on Haley, IMO.
1) He's not allowed to put together his own staff?
2) How do you not know what you want?
3) Obviously wouldn't be good.
4) Why should Weis play 2nd fiddle? He was hired to do a job. Haley needs to keep his hands out of it.

If it's the first issue it's on Pioli, not Haley. I still think Solari and Gun were forced on Herm. I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case here too. I'm not going to fault a head coach if his boss forces a guy on him.
To the second issue, I could easily see Haley thinking this would work out and maybe it just didn't. Maybe that's because Haley is indecisive or a bad judge of character (not good on Haley). Maybe it's because Weis is a different guy than he was when they first worked together and let power get to his head (not good on Weis). Or maybe he was just experimenting to see if it worked (looks bad on Haley, but looks fine if it eventually works out). All these things look really bad on Haley and I hope it doesn't affect our ability to make the next hire. At the same time, I could see a McCoy type relationship working out. If they get him and it does work out, then Haley's tiffs with Weis and Gailey become a non-issue.
Third is obviously purely on Haley and something to worry about. That means Haley has a pretty poisonous ego problem.
Fourth, come on, man. We know Weis came with a lot of potential baggage. If he's the assistant, he has to understand he's the assistant. The question is, was Weis asking overdemanding and Haley got sick of it? Or was Haley micromanaging every last playcall of Weis'? I don't know, but those are two completely different answers. |
