I actually agree that he's a pretty lukewarm hire. I'm not gonna be jumping up and down celebrating if we get him. My hopes are sky high that we get someone clearly better.
I absolutely don't think he would be a disaster though. There are lots of positives with him that I would be able to hang my hat on as a fan. Most of those have already been laid out ad nauseum.
I just mainly don't get the certainty one way or another. He's proven to be a good coach, with room and time to grow into a better one. I would hope that he does.
