My point is that most all-Ireland’s or provincials have been won with managers on their first assignment. I know Gavin had u21 experience but no senior inter-county. Same applies to Rochford in Mayo, McStay in Ross, and most other counties.
We had a former county manager who had stints with other counties and ye were giving out about him too.
Give the guy a chance, he has a decent resume, he’s well liked apparently, good backroom team and he is out to prove himself, which can only be good if channeled properly.
Time will tell, but I think we might have picked a good one here..
