Agreed, I think it's like Christainsen a few years back, it's a one year experiament that didnt work out. Supposedly Addazio was only a one year contract anyways so you dont have to "fire him", just dont renew it. Have heard talk that he's been in and out of the hospital with some health issues this year and that his son was doing a lot of the coaching.
And from a premium post a buddy sent this morning, according to BL: "What I've heard thus far is that Jimbo has zeroed in on a handful of targets and conversations have been taking place this week already. The most interesitng news its that it's being understood that Fisher is making it clear whoever he hires will be calling the plays on Saturday." Goes on later to say "once a new hire is made, he will work with the new OC to determine the direction of the offensive staff"
So while nothing definitive, sounds really promising and exactly what most Aggie fans were praying for after this abomination of a season.

We got there in the most excruciating way possible, but if you told me at the start of the season that we would have an actual OC and Weigman as an experienced QB heading into 2023, I would be have been on cloud nine.

At this point, I don't even think we have to change much offensively. It's just Jimbo giving up the play calling and letting an OC take over from the booth. He can't get a feel for the game flow anymore. Adjustments from the booth are critical and Jimbo is doing too much from the sidelines to know what's going on (the dude is calling plays, screaming at officials, screaming at our QBs, watching our defense, watching special teams, etc....that's just too much for one person to do).
A lot of our issues came down to our O-linemen. The run game would have worked tremendously well if we had competent linemen who were well coached. Being on the road and seeing our linemen guess our play because they couldn't communicate in loud environments was extremely frustrating. And when they had the play down, they were either too slow or too undisciplined to open gaps or make blocks (tight ends too seemed underwhelming).
The offensive line needs to change! At this point, I just need to see Adazzio get replaced and a new Strength and Conditioning coach come on board. I said it once and I'll say it again; go get Kaz Kazadi from TCU. The guy will get our players in shape. He has a history of turning small/undersized offensive linemen into work horses. Art Briles used to recruit guys who lacked the size but had good technique. Then he would let Kazadi work his magic. If we can look past DJ Durkin's past, then surely we can hire Kazadi.
