Personally I don’t see Stoever sticking around for another 3 years or so, so I feel like the succession planning talk/age talk is slightly irrelevant. In the immediacy though, I think he’d be great for another year.
I don’t hate the idea of Bownsy at 1A & a Lucas Brine maybe as a 1B. Not sure how much Harry Thomas has got about him if we’re talking succession?
