“Much of this depends on your mentality. Some coaches are fine with being only "good" at what they do. Take what I’ve seen of Florida State recently. I like Jimbo Fisher and think he calls a great game, but I don’t think his offense — either at LSU or his current one at FSU — is particularly great at any one thing. He has a lot of concepts but few of them, espcially in the passing game, seem to flow into and out of one another in the same way that, say, June Jones’s do at SMU, Mike Leach’s at Texas Tech, or Joe Tiller’s did back in his early Purdue days.”

It seems that now we have the whole playbook Jimbo left behind and added the Pistol. the Power I, and some AirRaid. Along with that we seem to need to run the short side option at least once per half. I was all for the change to GC from Jimbo because of what is stated above but I would not object to seeing GC move on after this year. I just don’t think that what he wants to do suits our talent and his problems in succeeding years could well be caused by getting too much of his offense installed as time goes by. On this same track by next year we could be completely immobile.

Whatever is done we need a radical change of philosophy on O to take advantage of the talent we have recruited.
