re: Bobo Sucks

IMO this year our talent on the field was responsible for the production more so than any offensive genius coming from the booth.

First off, Bobo is as responsible for recruiting that talent as anyone. That's a big part of his job, and he's good at it.

Second, this statement is true for any coach. Do you think Malzahn is seen as an offensive genius without Cam Newton and an athlete like Nick Marshall running his offense? The year after Cam, Malzahn offense sucked. Do you think Chad Morris' offense will be as successful without Tajh Boyd and Sammy Watkins? Doubtful.

Coaches are typically either successful because they are good at acquiring talent and putting it in a position to be successful on its own or because they are good at creating schemes to mask talent deficiencies. Bobo/Richt have chosen (and are having success with) the first option. Even then, Bobo has gone with more spread concepts this year than ever to mask our problems on the offensive line.
