Weren't there rumors about KW not wanting to give the reigns to Hahn?

When we started hearing rumblings that Kenny was being moved out of the GM spot, I could've sworn there were some rumblings that Kenny didn't support either Hahn as the replacement or some of his ideas

Am I misremembering something?

I thought there were rumors that KW and Hahn weren't on the same page on some stuff

It would make sense. What I recall is that about that time back then, Rick Hahn's stock was rising. I remember some article, which I can't find now, that wrote about the new up and coming Asst. GM's and Hahn was considered one of the top young Asst. GM's for the future. I recall rumors floating around that several clubs were contacting Jerry to be able to get permission to interview Hahn. The rumor was Jerry then realized that he might be losing Hahn decided to keep Hahn and make him the GM to replace Kenny. This of course meant doing the typical Jerry thing and move Kenny up to a higher position, but letting Kenny know it's really Rick's gig going forward. Hence why Kenny wouldn't be happy at all! Whether that is a fact, I don't know, but it would make sense.

Further to your point that Kenny and Rick weren't on the same page. Right before the official announcement in 2016 for the total rebuild, it was rumored that Kenny was not in favor of the rebuild. It was Rick's idea and eventually Jerry agreed and went with Rick over Kenny. It was Kenny's plan to do his typical method of tweaking and making bad trades and give up great future prospects to rebuild the roster. 

Regardless of whatever happened behind closed doors, this we do know for an absolute fact; these three clowns are POS executives that are destroying the White Sox organization!
