I would disagree. Murray possibly actively sabotaged the team because Uncle Bwyan was mad at Lindy Ruff. He was also a gigantic douche and obnoxious and arrogant 100% of the time.
Botts was saddled with Murray's mess. Yes, he has been inept in seemingly signing mainly bad players like Sheary and Vesey, and he has been a doofus with his dumb reasons for not trying usually explained in interviews from golf courses, and yes his big plan is to wait for Dylan Cozens to develop in 2025 but he is courteous and polite. That alone puts him ahead of Murray.
