Breheny to be named new Lightning Coach

To any applicants for the position, it may look a bit dodgy that the CEO took the applications and then appointed himself to the position, but there are several factors that have to be taken into consideration. Firstly, the CEO has to put up a very convincing case to the board in order to undertake that decision. Secondly, the calibre of the applications may not have been of the standard expected and thirdly, if Vince is making cost cutting measures, could be any decent coach would have demanded more money than he could pay. With Breheny already on the payroll as CEO, the additional cost (if any) to take on the head coach role would have have been very cost effective. Also, whilst he is the CEO, he does possess other talents, one being coaching. Why not utilise all his skills instead of just one?

Might be a good idea, don't want to be confused with JS - even though he is a nice guy

IMO this is a move that opens the Lightning and Brehney up to a lot of criticism if it doesn't work out.

Jack - I'm not Justin, but I probably should change my tag as I took it straight over from ozhoops a few years ago without checking he had it first on here.

Interesting that expressions of interest for coaching were to be submitted to Steve in the first place.

Not saying he is no good at coaching, but I know if I was someone who applied for a job and the guy who received the applications got the job, I would be a little jacked off.

I am sure due process was followed, but in a lot of cases apart from justice being done, it must seen to be done.
