I remembered when we fired Jim Mora and basically hit the destruct button on this franchise. That there were rumblings that the Hawks were looking at bringing in a coach that seemed to be a trendy or a Coach with a name if you will. That was when we started to hear that Tod Leiweke was down in LA and making a push to get Pete Carroll. Then, Leslie Frazier didn't want to come to Seattle because he thought we were just trying to work the Rooney Rule. Even though I didn't believe that was the case. I thought Leslie Frazier was a good coach, but I just don't think he is a Head Coach. I just remember thinking Frazier, Carroll and the rest of the bunch didn't make me excited. I just remember that I want Tony Dungy. Regardless, Tod Leiweke had the vision and brought in Carroll. I have to give a big round of applause to Tod Leiweke. If it weren't for this man and Paul Allen's trust in Leiweke... We would not have the St. Pete and St. John that we have now. We have a model Front Office. Something that the rest of the league is starting to take notice and starting to emulate. Tod saw something that the rest didn't and made a move that takes some balls. I feel like we wouldn't be where we are if it weren't for Tod. Just sayin...
