I get what you are saying, but I'm happy to give our assistants one more year to prove themselves.

Gameplans arent as flexible as you think. Essentially the personal determine which gameplans are viable. In other words, recruiting directly correlates to gameplans, which mean they are about as maneverable as an aircraft carrier.
