Other teams have injuries too. The amount of detail and nuance you're considering our injuries with can be applied to the top 100 offensive teams as well. We're battling an inordinate amount of injuries, but even from last year's performance, we were not doing well.

It's hard to fathom that our school with the quality of recruiting classes we bring in (rankwise), with our budget, and the resources we have, cannot muster up a top 100 offense even on pure luck and athletic ability alone. We are probably top 5 in the country for the amount of resources at our disposal, and sub-100 offense? We're not able to get everyone we want, but it's far easier for us to get players than say Tennessee, which has very few eligible decent players in their state. The fact that we don't have all SEC player on offense points to what, recruiting or coaching? Someone has dropped the ball.

The invite to the Sugar Bowl was on account of our great record, but that does not clue anyone in to the quality of our offense.

I and many fans are giving Boom a pass on this year on account of the amount of injuries. But this offense needs an overhaul, and Pease has not shown anyone he's capable. What Boom says publicly may not reflect his feelings personally and he's not a foremost expert on offense anyways, so his opinion shouldn't be the end all-be all.

Cornhat ...you completely ignore the basic explanations of my post as it doesn't fit too well in your theory...but that's ok...these are opinions afterall.

After I explained my reasoning of our offensive shortcomings and successes....you don't give us reason to qualify Peases failures....but we are a school with top resources and money should be able to get us a better offense. Sure sure.
Last year we moved the ball on UGA but turnovers killed us....it wasn't the play calling...its execution. Re read my post again before wading into the "he's not developing" pool. Driskel was splitting reps all the way til start of the season..and in essense he was r/s frosh with VERY limited snaps under his belt.
Our defense was stout and there was no reason to throw much...why entertain fans? Boom wants to win and we were a field position, eat clock and run the ball down their throat team. Everyone was pretty happy after LSU game...we went 11-1 and didn't show up for Sugar Bowl.

We start out this year with the canes and Driskel throws for almost 300 yds...but five turnovers sink us. After Driskel went out...nothing can be determined in honesty about how well we would have played on offense and the injuries mounted.

I don't personally care if Pease stays or not...I do know we recruited well on the offensive side this past Feb and have a top QB ready to come to Gainesville....I will let Muschamp decide what is best...he knows his future depends on this and if we fail in 2014...he is gone. Remember that a new OC can create confusion with his own set of play calls and making everyone learn a new system, do we want that? Boom only has a year and a lot of OCs aren't going want to come to UF with the fear that the house gets cleaned if Boom is let go.
