Hardwork is doing everything the board has directed him too. As hard as it is for some to swallow - his job is almost purely developmental and educational. It's about building up the foundations and structure for the future. Hardwick was not hired as a tactical coach. He may well become one but his, and his assistants, strengths are foremost in the one area that has dragged us down into medrocity for decades - developmenting. Forget recruiting, forget tactics, they are useless if you can not get the best out of what you have. Hardwick was given definite goals to reach and he has more than reached them. Until the goals switch back to onfield success then he is as safe.
