That's exactly it.

We tried to do the RIGHT thing when we hired Haley. That's how you get a Harbaugh or Peyton.

Unfortunately, the downside is...well...Todd Haley.

Seems awfully similar to the QB situation.

Went out and tried to get an "up and coming stud HC" and failed. Now they are scared to try again.
