I've said this 1,000 times. The Gailey hiring clearly illustrates everything that is wrong with Carl Peterson. Gailey was hired the right way--there was an open audition, lots of candidates interviewed, and the best candidate was chosen. Carl Peterson has a history of refusing to interview anyone outside of his network (that includes: Herm, Gun, Solari, Vermeil, Gun again).

I have to think that the hiring of Gailey shows that Peterson isn't in as much control as he used to be. It must have been killing him to know that someone outside of his network was being interviewed for a coordinator position.

By the way, there's no question in my mind that if such a scenario were to occur, Croyle would win the job outright.
