Some people will never be satisfied. Saying "It should never have come to this" is making the perfect the enemy of the good. Let's look at the deal for Kendall for what it is and acknowledge that the team made the best of a bad situation. They took a chance that Wade could transition and they missed. I don't think it was an unreasonable risk. Guard is an easier position than Tackle, others have successfully made the switch, etc. If Bugel thought it could be done, you have to rely on that judgement. At least they aren't trying to go forward with Wade in an attempt to prove a point. They have seen their error and attempted to correct it.
But Matty is right, in the end you either win games or you lose games and that is the judge and jury on all these moves. I think that if you are a supporter of the team or claim to be, you should at least wait and see some regular season games before you make a final judgement, but that's my view.
