1. I doubt Gus has to worry about being overruled by his OC so I'm not sure what this question is asking.
Sorry, lazy question on my part. In the past Gus could blame the OC to a degree. While most/everyone knew he was still the mastermind, there was a degree of separation. This year it seems like it's more on Gus (if that's possible).
Are you guys worried at all about the Oregon game? I think it's a good early matchup which (assuming you win) can put you on a good trajectory.

The QB's are young...Gus hasn't shown an ability to maximize the play of his own QB recruits.
The OL is ok, but not great.
The LB's will likely take a small step back, but most hope the DL improves, but we still don't have an honest speed rusher.
We play the preseason 2,3,6,8,11,13 teams...do the math.

Spot on, Gus has nobody to throw under the bus this year

Feeling was that he had been pressured for a long time to step back from play calling duties but was never comfortable in doing so. I see his taking it back as his recognition that this is a make or break year for him. So, if he has to bet on anyone, he's going to bet on himself and get back to where's he's most comfortable.
How will it go? Who knows. A lot of unknowns, but it's Auburn so there are ALWAYS a lot of unknowns. I do think it was a good decision on Gus' part.
