he had, what, a week or two to prepare for Clemson. Best I remember, he wasn't even an active coach on the staff, but was support staff.
He was offensive support staff all year. What, you think he didn’t help formulate the game plans or watch our games all year? I don’t know what his specific duties were but that should have been a fairly seamless transition for a guy that has been in that chair before. Face it, he shite the bed.
I could have called the second half of that game better than Sark did. All you had to do was adjust to what was working, not continually trying something that wasn’t and played to the weakness of our QB. But he didn’t. Then he got let go in the NFL by a team that has Matt Ryan throwing to Julio and Ridley. Think about that. Yeah, he has decent rankings for his offense but at the end of the day, the front office felt like he wasn’t doing a good job. So we hire him back.
Saban knows better than us so I’ll defer to him but this hire just stinks on the surface and is very hard to rationalize and understand. It feels like it was done to appease the Tagovailoas since they knew him and were comfortable with him and for his ties to the west coast. Otherwise it makes no sense but the GOAT made the call so I’ll just have to trust him and see how it plays out.

What was the situation with Atlanta's o-line?

Saban worked with him for a year, if he truly didn't think he could call a good offense he wouldn't hire Sark back. Saban hired Locksley into the role and very few thought he would be a good playcaller/call a historic offense. Worst case, Sark is an average OC who develops the QBs for a year before he leaves again and we go hire a different OC. Judging him or Golding on limited sample sizes when they weren't the primary coordinator for their unit seems very short sighted.
Also in regards to Atlanta specifically, Sark coordinated an elite offense in Atlanta and will be coming back to college where he will have an offense with comparable talents (relative to their competition) going against defenses that don't have the kind of athletes the NFL does.
