Both Haley & Pioli have reps for wearing on those who work for/with them. Joining them was like storing matches w/ dynamite. Inevitable.

Bottom line, both Haley and Pioli have tremendous egos. They were going to end up resenting each other and struggling over credit/blame.

Charlie Weis hire was second crack. It's a miracle Weis & Todd Haley didn't kill each other. Repeatedly sparred on Matt Cassel's development

Todd Haley was never 100-percent on Tyson Jackson pick. He wanted best player available, not a system D-end. & he wasn't good at hiding it.

Todd Haley's departure in KC no surprise. You could see early on this wasn't a marriage made to last. First crack was Tyson Jackson pick.

That's part of why Weis left after 2010. Haley couldn't coexist w/ him. Nor was Haley happy Weis was getting credit 4 Haley's work w/ Cassel

Cassel did not excel under Weis. That coaching job was done by Haley. Weis washed his hands of Cassel's development very early.

Then when Cassel started making strides in 2010, and Weis was getting credit for it in the media, it drove Haley nuts. And Weis had to go.

After arguing with Haley, Weis washed his hands of Cassel's development in early in 2010 & Haley took over those duties.

Local take that Weis was in Cassel's corner and Haley wasn't is completely false. That's a myth perpetuated to undercut Haley at the end.

I call bullshit on this. It doesn't ring true because (1) Cassel played his best football when Weis was here, (2) Cassel turned to shit immediately after Weis announced that he was leaving, (3) Haley and Cassel never got along, and (4) Weis and Cassel got along great. Cassel sent Weis a text message congratulating him when Weis got the head coaching job at KU.

This sounds a lot more like revisionist history, and I would bet anything that Todd Haley was Charles Robinson's "source".

It just doesn't ring true.
