I think it was even more than that. Out of respect for his team and coach, Mills has waited to announce the decision and told Frost he was going.....Which gave Frost over 2 weeks to do a search.Suspect Frost knew from the get go Mills was gone.
I think Wan Dale did exactly the same thing. Telling the staff his decision, but giving them plenty of time to try to plug the hole and lessen the damage.
And if that’s what has happened I think it’s wonderful. Reality, mixed with some common sense and manners.
Gee, what a concept.
