Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dantés" data-source="post: 901022" data-attributes="member: 12283">Jobs in coaching, like jobs in many, many industries, do often come down to relationships. Networking is a thing in virtually every job market. You can look at qualifications on paper, but the qualities of a person's character will have just as much to do with success/failure in the job. So it's not irrational or dastardly that coaches like to hire people they know and trust. LaFleur knows both Barry and Evero on a personal level. It's not as though one was a stranger to him and the other wasn't. And he clearly thinks highly of both-- they were two of the three finalists.So my argument is this: The Packers interviewed the people they were interested in, and gave the job to the guy they liked the best of the bunch, who was willing to take it (Leonhard being the obvious reference with that last statement). That's far more well-reasoned than "nepotism!!!"</blockquote>
