1. Did you want to fire Charlie Weis at any point during or after last season?
Only in the heat of passion.

2. Were you content with the decision to retain him?
Yes, assuming the decision included requiring him to make staff changes. It didn't seem like there were any home run candidates out there, anyway.

3. What % chance do you give him to turn in a good season this year?
50% chance of a BCS bid.

4. What % chance do you give him to win a national championship?
Minuscule from what we have seen to date, but I liked his offseason moves, and talented depth is starting to take hold, so I may have a different answer after this year.

5. Do you think the offseason changes are a positive development, and will they matter?
Yes, and, Lord, I hope so. I would rather roll the dice with some new coaches than another season of knowing what we have in OL and DL coaches, i.e. mediocrity or worse. IMO Charlie's hires since his initial hires, which he largely had to make while still working for the Patriots full time (except Vaas), have been significant upgrades, so I'm optimistic about the new crop.
