Also, Amnorix, what's the view of McDaniels up there? He gets mentioned along with Ferentz as the top two candidates should Pioli take a GM job.
Sorry it took me so long to respond.

About what you would expect, we think very highly of McDaniels. In, err, 2006 or whenever there was some criticism of him because everyone thought highly of Weis, but the last two years have proven McDaniels bona fides.

Also, McDaniels also gets more credit for bringing along Cassell than anyone else.

My only question is whether he's too young to run his own program yet. He's only 32 or so, and has been OC for mebbe 4 years. Does he have the leadership skills etc. to do the job? I don't know. I don't think he'll have any trouble with the X's and O's end of it.
