What if Marty Hurney


Recommended Posts

Im hoping Marty Hirney transformed and learned from his past mistakes    To make a hell of a football life doc

 

I think the new owners will keep the Cam/Rivera/Marty regime intact until its clear that a rebuild is needed. No infusing football decision makers just to do it. Perhaps replace top front office guys but none of the football guys.

depends, if this team goes to say the nfccg it would be foolish to fire him. if he drills at least 2 of the picks and they become stars you cant really remove him unless his fa blow up. he looks good so far, i would wait until he has a giant fug up if he does. he looks like a top 10 gm so far tbh.

As much as I can’t stand Hurney, it really does look like he mostly nailed his draft. There’s a couple picks I would have really liked to have seen gone a different way (like Harrison instead of gauldin) but this is the best I’ve felt right after a Hurney draft ever. The conundrum is whether we want to wait and see if he fugs it all up again (highly likely if he sticks around) or have blind faith that he magically became a competent GM. If he did pull of that transformation, it would be nothing short of a miracle.

I would hope everyone changes and grows over time. That is an essential part of maturing. The changes likely reflect better scouting and input from the team he assembled. He didn't do it in a vacuum.

He did say he learned from his mistakes.   I can't help also believing JR had something to do with our CAP Hell he put us in a couple of years back.

JR did cause by dumping all the vets after 2009 and going youth in 2010 in prep for a long night holdout which didn't happen. Then we were do bad in 2010 that fans has no confidence we wanted to win and field a competitive team. So to instill faith we grossly overpaid Johnson and Williams and Stewart to demonstrate our commitment. Hurney made mistakes but JR was at the root of it.

Time will tell .  If this draft turns out to be very good and he can do reasonable contracts , he will stay until Rivera is let go and a total rebuild is needed .   i look forward to training camp to see how this pans out . Most analyst give him a B or better this draft .

Of course JR had something to do with that, all the people putting that completely on hurney are just turning a blind eye.

    • Jack Roslovic: Only 2 other UFA, right-handed centers age 28 or under had more points (39) than him- Sam Bennett (51) and Pius Suter (46). There were 4 other centers age 33 and older who scored more: Gireaux (37), Marchand (37), Tavares (34), Granlund (33).  Unless the Canes go old, if they let Jack walk, they won't get a center who scored more.  Thoughts? 
    • nope     This is why we come back every year.  Hope springs eternal
    • It's important to differentiate criticism and hate. I can't speak for that individual you quoted. But most people who have been critical of the Tepper's have been so because both of them have made it a point to put themselves front and center and in the middle of team operations and we have been largely horrific more often than not as a result. If people are making derogatory remarks about her that should be met with an appropriate response but if people are being defensive just because she's being criticized all I can say is people should get used to it. Both her and David would have been getting absolutely skewered by the media and the fans if this were a big market franchise. The Lakers are finally being sold off after years and years of public criticism of Jeannie Buss and even though I'm the furthest you could go from being a Lakers fan just about anyone you could meet who is familiar with the NBA would say the criticism was certainly valid.
