Anyways, long story short, if Auburn wants to experience REAL success, they should consider replacing Lashlee with Keven Kelly, and force Gus to run his system. Gus is familiar with this condition, as I'm aware it was one of HIS conditions upon taking the offensive coordinator job at the University of Arkansas.

I don't remember Houston Nutt/Gus Malzhan running the HUNH/fast pace offense with Mitch Mustain....I remember them running the Wild Hog (wildcat) but I don't remember them using Gus' hunh system at Arky.

They really didn't. The Arkansas fans would be more familiar with it, but I believe Gus wanted to throw the ball a lot more and Nutt (rightfully so) wanted to run more with the studs he had at RB. I don't think Gus has ever said aloud, but the rumor was that Nutt totally shut down his offense when they got to the SEC Championship.

Good observation, RT1941.

The only time I recall it being run in 2006 was at the end of the arse whipping we got from USC. All the coaches hated Gus. They picked on him and called him names. He bolted in 2007 and became a great coach earning a bunch of money.
