The AD/Coach, GM/Coach dynamic is so weird. You're technically reporting to someone that makes way, way less than you do. If you are successful, the AD can't really touch you. I doubt much of what Snyder does, day to day, is influenced by John Currie.If the next guy came in there and won 9 games in the first year, there isn't much Currie could do. He's really responsible for making the selection and basically being a figurehead and mouthpiece for the president and big money when things go bad.Let's be honest; Frank could have stayed if he really wanted to. He was just easily annoyed and didn't want to deal with Currie. I bet if you asked him whether or not he'd leave if he had to make that choice all over again, he'd seriously consider that answer, regardless of Currie.So what do you think Bill would say?
