I had saw several interviews where Davis and Towns talked highly of Payne and his part in making them better players. Some guys I think are excellent assistants, but just are not cut out for the job of head coach.

I think KP played the good cop to Cal's bad cop. Honestly, that's probably his ceiling as a coach.

I think Kenny Payne's recruiting ability was exposed, IMO. 

Maybe Cal can find some value in having him, but I'm not sure what it would be. 

Ask KP what he would do in a situation, then do the opposite.

Granted, one year isn't enough to judge, but he may have bought himself a small amount of grace in the fact that hiring Brohm seems to be working out.

That being said, I tend to agree with @TheDeuce .   You can't fail epically 2 times in a row on the departments marquee hire.

He has to keep disgruntled baseball coach Dan McDonnell happy, too.
