a veteran executive that can be the face of the franchise and add some legitimacy or a more progressive, unknown executive with upside?
almost all the recent examples of franchises really turning their talent base around are with the latter… but that is a much riskier move in this situation.

Late 50′s? Hire the guy already! Let him bring in an assistant GM to groom. Then hire the manager of his choice.
BC <—- secretly hoping manager is Bobby V.
