You know Hurney life story?

Wasn't Hurney = Darin Gantt in Washington, DC beat writing for the Redskins or something? time to wiki.

Hurney first caught the eye of former Washington Redskins Owner Jack Kent Cooke as a reporter covering the team's championship runs in the 1980s. Developing an association with Cooke, head coach Joe Gibbs and general manager Bobby Beathard, Hurney joined the Redskins public relations department in 1988. In 1990, Hurney moved with Beathard to San Diego, serving as the general manager's assistant with responsibilities that included organizing the scouting department and player contracts and overseeing the day-to-day football administration.

With the advent of the salary cap in 1993, Hurney emerged as the club's specialist in compliance management to the agreement, earning distinction as both an administrator and negotiator and playing an integral role in San Diego's AFC Championship in 1994.

A native of Wheaton, Md., Hurney graduated from Catholic University in Washington, D.C., and began his career as a journalist with the Montgomery Journal in Silver Spring, Md. In 1978, he moved to the Washington Star and worked three years for that paper before going to the Washington Times, where he spent five years as a beat writer covering the Redskins. Hurney and his wife, Jeannie, have two sons, Joe and James.

Well he did the opposite of Darin Gantt. While Hurney caught the eye of Jack Cooke for good reasons, Darin Gantt caught the eye of Jerry Richardson for all the wrong reasons and was promptly fired.

Yes, but don't really see the relevance. Once hired by BB, Hurney was mentored in cap management and front office management. Rivera's sole focus has been on the field.

I will give you props for thinking outside the box though. Waaaay outside the box.

No Hurney proved anything possible. Plenty of coaches went on to be GM or have GM duties
