I like the addition of some help in any area that will help continue the processes that get us the best players on the field.

Especially when it comes to scouting the college ranks.

You go Ziggy.

I don't get it...isn't this Scott Studwell's job?

Scott Kuhn

Both look like TV type personalities in the mold of Spielman. I don't trust 'em!

The way I read it Cojo is that they aren't being pushed out.

Remember what all of us thought about Spielmen leading up to the draft.
No one trusted him.

Maybe these guys will be a benifit to the team.
One will report directly to Studwell.
