Atkinson’s heart wasn’t in it from the start, whatever, I didn’t want him anyway and I’m personally glad that he isn’t going to be our head coach. However, that fact that he was able to deceive our higher ups when it should have been obvious that his heart wasn’t truly in it is concerning. It leads credence to the belief that our front office has no idea how to hire a competent head coach.

Certainly reasonable to feel this way given the track record of the franchise but they aren't going to do an hours long interrogation to assess his level of loyalty either. It's pretty clear the guy blindsided everyone and it says more about him than anyone else. He did us a favor he just went about it like a coward.

I just feel like if you go through an extensive interview process where you are speaking with guys multiple times, theoretically, you should be able to tell who is fully invested… unless of course Atkinson is just purely deceitful.

Just showed his true colors.. from what I was seeing or reading on Twitter.. he’s loyalty seamed a little questionable!! He might like to ride on the coat tails and not be a true coach!!
