Only time will tell. How did it work out for that other coach that won 1 and then was done?

That what I was thinking as well. I need more of a sample size.

The one that won it with gus as an OC?

I compeletely understand withholding judgement, but trying to draw parallels with chiz is pretty lazy becuase you're only looking at the low hanging fruit.

True.

Not well, but it took a perfect storm of Cam Newton and tons of experienced seniors for AU to have that 2010 season and also a perfect storm of losing all of that experience (25+ players) and not having a competent QB to ruin that coach. I don't think Chiz was the primary reason for the NC, but he also wasn't as bad as 2012 made him look.

Anyway, Gus is in a pretty different situation as far as personnel coming back to follow this year up. Also, he has a very consistent track record as far as putting a very good offense on the field. He may not replicate this season again, but he is even less likely to have a 3 win season.
