It’s not that I think McD is a bad coach - he’s a good coach. But his skill set - being able to coach up a rather vanilla defense - is simply not as valuable as a coach who understands the modern game, preferably with a focus on offense.
If they could get a high pick for McD they should do it - but they won’t, because the Pegulas strike me as the insecure type who would feel vindicated by getting such an offer - and would turn it down.
