He sucks because he has a track record. He had *three* NFL wide outs (soon to be four with XL) and an NFL TE on his roster in 2020, and couldn't do a damned thing with them. Josh Vann couldn't see the field under Bobo, then takes off like a rocket as soon as he leaves Columbia.

He insisted on playing Collin Hill's useless arse out of either loyalty, or he and Hilinski not jiving, or something. He chased Hilinski out of the program, despite a thoroughly promising freshman year. Hill was noticeably slower, had a weaker arm, lacked functional knees, and was not nearly as decisive.

Marcus Satterfield did a better job with his WRs and QBs than Bobo did. That's harsh, but it's truth.

I will give Bobo credit for this: he was instrumental in turning Kevin Harris into a legitimate SEC tailback, which is something we have not had since. As bad as Bobo was with QBs and WRs, he did have a good running game.

What Bobo did at SC was borderline coaching malpractice.

WR - Shi Smith (Panthers) - Josh Vann (Panthers) - Jalen Brooks (Cowboys) - Dakereon Joyner (USC) - Xavier Leggette (USC)

TE - Nick Muse (Vikings) - Jaheim Bell (FSU)

RB - Kevin Harris (2020 SEC Rushing leader) - Deshawn Fenwick (Oregon St)

QB - Colin Hill (Bobo's QB from Colorado St) <---Bobo's problem at Carolina

Bobo had talent - he chose to be stubborn and start a statue with multiple ACL injuries at QB

Kevin Harris and his yards after contact were a huge reason he led the SEC in rushing in 2020 - Bobo's favorite pick & pull play (which he ran at least 4 times against USC last weekend) was the go-to while Bobo was calling plays/interim HC -

as mentioned he ran off a high-rated QB/fan favorite from California - after the kids' family relocated to Columbia in 2019 -
