I like Vogel for the team now.. A vet coach to take the team to the next level..

I’m on the Vogel train as well. He did a lot of good things with that Indiana team and should have made the finals if not for blatantly favorable officiating towards the Heat. He also had the balls to call out the officials and the Heat for being a bunch of cry baby floppers.

Who ever we hire better have some deep playoff coaching experience.

I think this is a classic "grass isn't always greener" move. 

Did JB have his issues? Of course. But he was a young couch and the teams seemed to be improving every year. I would have liked to see what he would have done with a legit center. 

That being said his refusal to play young guys was frustrating.

That and the lack of competitiveness in back to back play in games were his undoing. You can make the argument about the grass not being greener but another aspect which I'm sure Mitch and MJ saw was how other teams that you can argue are not head and shoulders above the Hornets talent wise are out there competing. Even the Pelicans without Zion Williamson have given a team that was just in the Finals a run for their money in a series. JB just had no excuse for his team to once again get whooped like that.

that's a very fair counterpoint and one I admit makes a lot of sense

      Mike Kaye predicting we trade up in 2nd round

      We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that

      Day 2 Targets/Faves

      By woahfraze · Posted

      There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.
