That was not my interpretation of Woody's statement at all. He backed Rex as fully as one possibly could, I think it's a 100% certainty that Rex will be back next season. Woody could have given a statement such as "Rex is under contract at this time" and left the door open to the new GM having the authority to fire or keep Rex.
