With no GM in place, the franchise will just have to fold, I guess.
WTF are you talking about? Insurance? For what? Your fallback position would be to promote Farmer and he would be a better choice than Pioli. So there's your insurance.
Leverage? In what? Negotiations with a potential replacement? I'd say that leverage goes away the moment you actually do the interview with his replacement.
Keep on spinning, but this is nothing more than raw cowardice.

Who said it wasn't cowardice?
Hunt wants to make sure he has a better GM before he fires his current one.
It's a Hunt thing
and we are only talking about possibilities ... Hunt could also be playing a PR game for a few days to try and ease the backlash of keeping Pioli. We just don't know.
