Agree.  Rip the bandaid off and start the healing process.  Another year with KP will only put us another year behind in the rebuild.  I love the idea of TV coming back as interim HC for one season to give us time to land a quaiity HC.  I'm praying for that outcome.

I'm sorry.  I am am forever indebted to TVD for building the program over the years but her tenure is over and we/DAPER need to move the program forward and out of her shadow.  I even think it was a big mistake for Muir, and apparently now Donahoe, to allow her to stay on in an "advisory" capacity - even if it's to DAPER, and not WBB specifically - with office space no less.  It just makes things harder for any manager to make tough and necessary moves when s**t hits the fan if you've got a former incumbent looking over your shoulder.  I've seen the exact same situation in two other organizations and just the mere presence of a previous incumbent in the same building, purportedly reporting to "work", delayed effective crisis response/recovery efforts in both situations.  To paraphrase Dawn Staley - JUST.MOVE.ON!
