It has been a few weeks since Scott Skiles decided to walk away from the Orlando Magic, leaving the team without a head coach and scrambling to make a suitable replacement — which turned out to be Frank Vogel.
The reasons for Skiles’ departure are still unclear and will most likely remain a matter of educated guesses.
Looking at this situation when Skiles first stepped down, the situation could have been a lot worse. After just one year as head coach for the Magic, the speculation about his resignation grew and gave way to a negative spotlight.
