Chizik should have concerned himself with the defense getting gashed every fricking year he was the head coach.
I agree - Chizik "should" have done a lot of things differently. But at the end of the day a head coach is responsible for the entire team, both offense and defense. And if he see's that one unit is a detriment to the production of another unit, it's his job to do whatever "he" feels necessary to get his entire team to compete.

Sorry if I don't feel like Gene Chizik was 100% to blame for the mess that we saw on the field in '11 & '12. Folks say he meddled to much and stunted Gus' innovative offensive plans.

IMO, that '11 offense wouldn't have been much more productive if it was executed at lighenting speed or at normal speed. Some of the plays and the damn carousel QB rotation (Gus rarely allowed one single QB to complete an offensive series) had an awful lot to do with the results, and that lays on GM.

That lays on the HC. That offense was humming against Ut St, MSU, and the first half of Clemson...then it all changed. Against UVA...it returned when GM was allowed to go back to work.

Like you said,..."necessary to compete". That offense at the beginning of 2011 was competing.
