Since CFB is now semi-pro, can we fire this so called GM since we are looking for scapegoats?Still have no idea on what this person does and how this position is helping the team.

Not sure whether or not our guy does but I say bring in some outside knowledge and experience. Though not all NFL experience is the same. Having a GM experience only as a player like Andrew Luck vs a former coach or front office exec strikes me as being questionable.

Rinse and repeat: The money used for coaches is completely unrelated to the money used for NIL. You cannot redirect coaching money to NIL money.

Development coaches have zero coaching experience which is why we as fans are not seeing development.
