I thought and still think Gus is a good coach. Missed bad on QB development. If he would have just kept getting true dual threat QBs and let them throw between 20-30 times a game, keep on the read around 10 times a game, and continued tempo I think he would still be winning. He wasn’t going to get NFL type QBs in that system. He wasn’t going to get NFL type WRs in that system so he chose a different philosophy and never developed a more complex passing scheme. Outside of complexity in the pass route all the other parts of the offfense was very good on the structure. Just been around and lost the fan base then recruiting took a hit. Just my opinion so all the Gus haters just take it as that

I see where you are going with this but alas one of his major problems was changing the game plan the night before a game and not sticking with what the kids practiced all week on offense. I think he did that early and was successful at times but the past few years he changed it up and we lost games where we shouldn't have and became way to predictable. He didn't develop his offense over time and once that gets stale or predictable then it is easy to defend. Enough tape predicts the patterns and predictability.
