Still irrational. One one hand you're ready to concede Moos was what WSU needed at at time he was desperately needed. On the other you're still clinging to "His job performance is awful".
My guess is it was your feelers.
What's irrational about that statement? You have magic telepathic powers? Or is the messianic complex strong today?
I'm not willing to concede anything - you passed on that deal when you had the chance.
