You’ll have to forgive me for having considerably more trust in Kirby on the defensive side of the ball. In all of those cases, Kirby was/is there to act as a constant overseer.
On offense, he also hired James Coley for much the same reasons as he’s hiring Bobo (continuity, recruiting). I don’t expect this will go that poorly, but don’t ask everyone to think this plan is infallible.

In 2019, he had Monken coming to UGA until the browns offered the OC job.
Coley was a fallback for not having who he wanted. 1 year and gone.
Bobo was brought in and rumors immediately started about Monkens replacement for when he got what he wanted (near perfect scenario in the nfl). Well... the near perfect scenario happened (defensive head coach, full autonomy of the offense, I'm guessing that Lamar is QB).

Give me a ppg prediction for the offense in 2023.
You have opinions. Share this one.

Coley was a fricking disaster and a horrendous hire. Chaney was OKAY but topped out at "yeah he's decent". After that we promoted a career loser for as you said mostly recruiting reasons. So I am fully with you in that kirby has made some very shitty hires offensively.
However, hiring monken shows us a total paradigm shift in that regard. Chaney was still an old school guy and we wanted to run the same offense bama ran in 2008/2009 era. Coley, idk wtf to think about his system if one even exists. But going and getting monken shows that kirby was perfectly fine and ready to move away from historical SEC ball that was prevalent even up until a decade ago and shift towards modern new age offenses. Bobo sitting behind and learning for the last year is an added cherry on top bonus in this whole thing. Yes we have history that shows kirby has made some questionable offensive hires, but the most recent hsitory we have shows that he wants a modern explosive offense and its' likely he will instruct bobo to keep to the script
