SOC says Clark slammed Pioli

[ReynardMuldrake]

Everything I've seen from Clark tells me that he's waiting to get his legal ducks in a row before pulling the trigger. No way would he say "The next head coach is reporting directly to me" if he intended to keep Pioli around. That's an explicit vote of no-confidence on his part. My hunch is he's waiting for the right time to do it.
