I think this is inaccurate. McElwain did tailor the offense for Treon's first few games and he even talked about it in pressers. Towards the end of the season when it was clear Treon was simply not going to be a successful QB(or our QB of the future), he started to run "his" offense, or the system he wanted to install for the future -- because the rest of the offense needed to continue to progress and he needed to make sure they understood his system.
We'll have to agree to disagree (tho we do agree a whole lot) I think Mac stuck to his system because he already had the East wrapped up and deemed getting players used to the system for next year far more important that helping a bad QB in Treon.
Roper did so much better with Treon, imo.
That said, I think's better for coaches to adapt. The latter half of UF's season didn't need to be so bad,

McElwain didn't need to tailor the offense to Treon as good as the defense was. He would rather continue to develop the other guys in his system.

Define so much better.
Completion %
2014 49
2015 50
He threw the ball over twice as much more last year than 2014. He threw for the same number of touchdowns though. He threw 6 INTs last year and 4 under Roper.
Treon was awful with our without Roper.
49% completion
