No offense to Danny Manning as he is what he is and may in time turn out great, but Wellman did nothing to tone down the expectations of the fanbase and Hatch and himself are on record stating we are "swinging for the fences" "going for a homerun hire" and someone even said "Shaka would be settling". So here we post home runes equal to a Danny Manning Hire

Yeah, that was a pretty bad PR move for them to say they "were swinging for the fences" and not have a home run hire already locked up. However, did we really expect anything different from Wellman?

Knowing his ego and the looser purse strings available this time I think he was confident he had Shaka. His quotes in the paper last week were positively cocky.
