What do you think of Kirby's OCs as a head coach? Where would you rank Bobo amongst the others?

Monkey was obviously excellent.

Coley was horrible.

The other two are varying shades of average.

I'm not sure Kirby demands the level of excellence from that side of ball that he does from the defense.

This. Kirby seems to be stuck in Saban's old mentality that defense wins championships because most of our 5 star recruiting has been on that side of the ball.
I think we need a younger up and coming innovative OC who can recruit top players. I just don't think there are many 5 start offensive players who want to play for Bobo.
But in absence of replacing Bobo, we at least need a new OL coach who can recruit top OL and coach them up.

I worry about Nepotism for a lack of a better word. Meaning I worry Smart will stick with Bobo for longer than he should because they are best friends. I mean, who wants to fire their best friend?

This puts it in perspective pretty well. Something definitely needs to be changed. Firing Mike Bobo is one option. But it's also not the only option, or if it is the correct option. Bobo called really aggressive plays early in all of these games, but the players weren't executing (dropped passes). If somebody else is calling those same plays, and the receivers are actually catching them, that OC is considered a genius.

Surely he can’t just expect the defense to win every game? Bc our defense played lights out the past two games, its hard to overcome 2 turnovers and a special teams score when you are solely relying on them

Remember how long it took Richt to fire Willie Martinez?
