It's definitely never happened before in the real world where an organization fires someone and then gives his replacement all the credit while claiming the terminated individual actually wasn't responsible for most of what he accomplished.

I have no doubt that Veach scouted Mahomes but John Dorsey was the GM at the time and deserves the credit. I'm not interested in semantics.

The "Chiefs would never have drafted Mahomes without Brett Veach" narrative was shoved down our throats in an attempt to buy Bert some positive PR with the fanbase when we promoted an inexperienced guy to GM. I'm not naive enough to believe otherwise.
Nobody said he deserves “all the credit”. That’s a strawman if I’ve ever seen one.

Also, were those at Texas Tech also in on the propaganda campaign?
