Clark Hunt Statement

"I have a tremendous amount of respect and admiration for Romeo, both personally and professionally," Chiefs Chairman and CEO Clark Hunt said. "He is an accomplished coach, a man of great character and he helped guide our football team through some extremely challenging circumstances this season.

"However, I am embarrassed by the poor product we gave our fans this season, and I believe we have no choice but to move the franchise in a different direction. I will immediately begin the search for the next head coach of the Chiefs. The entire football operation will remain under review, and there may be additional changes to come. No final determination has been made at this point on the future of General Manager Scott Pioli.

"Finally, I want to personally apologize to our fans for our performance this season. We are blessed to play for some of the best and most passionate fans in the National Football League and they deserve better than what we gave them this season. I want our fans to know that I will do everything I can to provide them with a dramatically better team - both next season and in the seasons to come - and our entire organization appreciates their support."

But we have to wait until we hire a HC.

Makes sense.

Bad girlfriend, indeed.
Actually no, I am happy period, even if he is retained.

My happiness or pack thereof no longer depends on the Chiefs.

I'll get there eventually, but I'm not looking forward to giving up 33 years of fandom.

Not looking like I'm going to have much of a choice though.

Face it, we are keeping Pioli. All the good ones will already be gone by the time we get a HC. Hiring the HC without firing the GM is beyond stupid. Kind of like Pioli picking the QB before getting a HC. STUPID

Clark announcing that he would ensure separation between the football/non-football operations after Carl Peterson "resigned", and then allowed Fat Scott to go on a power tear in the organization and influence the termination of several non-football operations staff members (i.e. Denny Thum)... FAIL.

All the reported chaos and low morale within the Chiefs organization, as reported in the Arrowhead Anxiety article earlier this January... Clark is the CEO of the organization... FAIL.

The Chiefs record since the 2007 season (the first full season after Lamar Hunt's death): 29-68, 0-1 in the playoffs... FAIL.

Defend Clark's record.

Seriously defend his record.

I dare you.

Go for it.
So he didn't fire Carl the moment old man Hunt ceased to breath, big deal. He still did it when many thought CP just might be here for life. I actually give him credit for the move instead of nit picking over waiting 1 year after taking full responsibility before pulling the trigger.

To date there is only one thing I can really knock Clark on and even then I cannot knock him too hard. The Hunt family has more than just an NFL franchise to run. And any good leader brings in quality people underneath them to help run things. Clark made what the majority of the league and fans thought was an excellent hire when he brought Pioli in. He gave him the keys to the place and told him to run it. All of these other issues you listed happened under Pioli's watch. Clark's attention is understandably divided amongst all of the family business. So things fall between the cracks when it turns out you hired a bad manager.

Clark not being more involved is my only issue. Then again I do not want him too involved. I don't want a Jerry Jones type who thinks he knows more than he really does. So I don't get too caught up in that.

Now if he retains Pioli, which I do not believe he will, then my opinion changes drastically.

@ArrowheadPride The Chiefs could do a lot worse than Whisenhunt, if you ask me. I think the guy is a hell of a coach hamstrung by a bad org.

Did Wisenhunt draft Leinart? or was that Denny?

Lamar Hunt died December 2006 and Dictator Carl didn't "resign" until December 2008.

Clark gave Dictator Carl another year even AFTER the trainwreck that was the 2007 season which included a 4-12 record.

Some people are saying that Hunt stated that the next HC will determine Pioli's fate...

I don't see that in his statement. Is there another release that I'm missing, because from the above I have no reason to believe that Pioli won't have his fat fingers all over the coaching search.

I'd be fine with it.

But the question becomes is KC a better organization than the Cardinals are at this time?
