Is this what a competent front office with ownership that isn't afraid to spend money looks like:dwillhuh:

Was reading somewhere that this is the first time since 85, the guy running the show wasn't from the inside.

Pax since 03

Krause was a scout for the Bulls, then for the Sox before Reinsdorf hired him as GM in 85.

we're seeing more competency in two days than the past decade, unreal.

Nope get someone proven.

I'm actually not to hot on Calvin Booth either.

I met him at summer league last summer

Booth appears like he's just there, but he wouldn't be a bad hire.

That said, go get Troy Weaver. If Weaver doesn't take this job, then I don't know what he's waiting for.

Bulls have definitely been one of the last holdouts on an outdated and dying way of running a franchise

ASG was here for the first time in 30+ years and not only did we lack representatives, just Zach in the 3 point contest, some of the talk was about how trash we were.
I really do believe the firegarpax movement making it's way to national tv and going viral is the straw that broke the camel's back.

Cowley has suggested though, that the increasing empty seats and the tv ratings plummeting is what got Jerry's attention. I also think they suffered a bit in merchandising.

Coasting on the brand will only go so far. I'm not surprised paying customers are checking out. The fans have been loyal as fukk but something eventually has to give. It was probably a combination of both the bad press and dollars and cents for real.
