are we making too big a deal of this? I think Mario knows what type of system he wants, is certainly recruiting the maulers up front for a more physical style of play, etc. Does the new OC basically take the old Gattis playbook and verbage to ease the players into a newer system eventually? And by newer system, I don't mean air raid or anything like that. It could mean just tweaking some plays, adding some others, but basically keeping it similar. So the onus would be on the new OC to adapt to what the players already are familiar with, use the same terminology, but just start tweaking, and of course calling plays that have a better flow with what's going on.
I think the main knock I had on Gattis was his complete lack of feel for the game and the questionable play calling. But I think in better hands the offense he was trying to implement could be effective. The Michigan style offense is a playoff type of offense, at least the past couple of years. Certainly could work here with the right players that Mario seems to be recruiting.
