Since much of the same team remains from a terrible '12 season, it does seem that Gus's scheme has much to do with Auburns success.

I don't think anyone ever argued that.

The point was that Gus inherited a much better team than Bert did, and that's not taking anything away from Gus.

Tell me which situation you'd have preferred to walk into.
