I think it's worth mentioning that Jerry and Frank did not have to deal with major player movement in the first year, and they both had rosters with players whose numbers now hang from our rafters (Frank-2, Jerry-4!). Currently there is nobody that has earned that honor as of today. (They may in the future)
It's safe to say that if we were winning right now Ty would be a great coach, but the point of this thread is that he still *might* do that after some time.
Here's to hoping.
