I don't think we necessarily need "alpha's" in all positions. We may just need very bright people who have enough leadership sense to make it work. Mike McDaniel in Miami or the late Mike Leach command respect because of their bold genius. Think of a guy like Gary Kubiak when he was in Denver - not alpha material but a guy with great football smarts who ran things well. Or the great Tom Osborne ... hardly gave off alpha vibes but my god people ran through walls for him because they trusted his approach and resolve.

I agree. But, we do need an Alpha somewhere!

At Head Coach, it would make a big difference for us right about now.
