re: So, according Finebaum, Fulmer's final 3 were Mel Tucker, Kevin Steele, or Pruitt?

That air raid shite won’t work in the SEC, and you’ll never win a national title with it.

Leach used it at Kentucky as OC with Hal Mumme. Bob Stoops, while DC at Florida, had trouble with it. It is the primary reason he hired Leach as his first OC at Oklahoma in 1999.

That is where the offense really took off. Oklahoma won the national title in 2000, and everyone started employing aspects of that offense in the Big 12 and beyond. Suffice to say, it could work in the SEC if you place emphasis on the power running part of it and still have great athletes on defense. It just seems so many Big 12 programs only play lip service to having a physical running game and defense.
