and what was the end result due to not hiring from the 'full body of available coaches' due to that move????????????????????

Letting Fedora coach the bowl game made no difference in the next hire for two reasons:

1) We didn't delay the search nor the hire because of it. The turnaround was quick enough that Johnson was (conveniently) introduced as the next coach while the team was in Hawaii.

2) Saunders had long since already decided Johnson was her man. Remember, it turned out he was hired despite a multitude of protests by people on the advisory committee, an m.o. Saunders repeated with the hiring of Hammond as full-time A.D. shortly thereafter.
