Don't know, don't care. How he considers himself to be ready for THIS job is trolling in itself.
To Jason: How much do you value DMI in callup options? Would the 9 GS player be picked over a high 8 GS?
I don't think there is a 100% across the board answer to that. DMI absolutely is telling, but not entirely...typically 9 is better than 8, but it depends on the tactics being played, the role of the player, the game shape of our opponent, etc.
