Yeah, which is exactly why I expect Bert to do well at Arkansas in the next few years. He clears out the program and then builds it up. Doesn't always look pretty, but he does a solid job. Malzahn has a track record of utilizing what he's got to the fullest extent he can. I know the former can be successful long term... not sure about the latter yet.

I think Gus is a good coach and he can be a successful coach. My biggest concern about him is that he is a very intuitive, call it on the fly, go with your gut coach.
Most of the time he does great with that style. He does, however, seem to have a couple of games each year where he doesn't fall into that comfortable rhythm or he falls out of it and then his offense tends to stall. Every team has bad offensive games every now and then, but with the style of play he is comfortable with Auburn has to score points and a buttload of them.
We know he can get hot with the right team and make a serious run for a national title. We also know that when things aren't clicking the record can really drop off. He's still worth it for Auburn.
