30Assists 342 Report post Posted July 30, 2012 I agree about being smarter. The problem isn't that Orlando isn't a big draw. Orlando has never had a problem attracting free agents. Our problem is that we throw too much money at the wrong players. That's what Otis did and I'm confident that Hennigan won't make the same mistakes. I like this hire; not that I know that much about Vaughn but, Hennigan was clearly very thorough in his approach. Also, Vaughn sounds like someone that is very intelligent and hard-working. That is a combination that is usually successful regardless of what field of work it's in. We also have to throw so much money at second tier players because the first-tier players all want to play in NY, LA, Boston, Chicago, Miami, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ML6 520 Report post Posted July 30, 2012 Vaughn is perfect for our situation. He will motivate players and guys will want to play for him. Great hire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
