monte is a character said:"Which scenario is better for the Griz"?
If you really want to know what the best scenario is LONG TERM for the Griz, it will be for them to lose the rest of their games, so the Kool-Aid drinkers will choke on their grape juice, and join the rest of us who understand that we are going nowhere until a purge of the coaching staff happens.
As a long-time season ticket holder, it is painful for me to say this, but there are way too many apologists and blind faith followers who will never come around until the reality hits them squarely in the noggin. We are going nowhere this season, even if we make the playoffs it will be a quick one-and-out, so I am willing to sacrifice this season for a new direction towards returning to a dominant program.
You were probably one of those dipshits calling for Don Read's head when he went 6-4 and 6-5 in his first two seasons, and then were screaming 'I told you so" when he went 7-4, 7-4 and 6-5 in seasons 5, 6 and 7 of his reign here.
