This morning I came across an article on Grantland titled “Hot seat watch”, I gave it a click because Grantland usually does really good stuff and Mike MacIntyre’s name has come up on these things before.
After scrolling through the early names on the list, which was organized on a scale of 1-10, and not seeing Mac in the lower numbers, I figured he wasn’t going to show up at all. But, to my surprise, there he was, ranked with the third highest number of any coach, a nine out of 10.
I feel like I’ve written and talked about this at length already so I won’t go too far into my thoughts on whether or not he is on the hot seat, but I will say this, his seat is absolutely, positively, not at a nine out of 10 right now, maybe a one or a two.
