Otz is back

[jsb]

Some of you read WAY too much into everything....

It is exhausting to be as paranoid as I am about this whole thing. EXHAUSTING, I tell you

Some people, I tell ya.

1 year deal is normal for assistant coaches.

Most of state employee's contract is 1 year deal.

I've heard somewhere that one year was standard

 

[erikbj]

just saw on Twitter, Otz signed just a one year deal. Does he think one year with Fred and then HC job somewhere?

By the way, with Fred's recovery time, I think bringing on a guy like Otz that can basically head up the recruiting efforts for a couple months is huge.

Absolutely! Many people underestimate the need to bring in somebody that knows Fred, has his complete trust and respect, and can be off and running right away. Very few people knew about Fred's surgery date at the time, but now that it's public, it certainly helps (hard to believe it was even necessary) to stress why the Otz hiring was so critical.
