What you are missing is that Cristobal inherited a garbage OC, Marcus Arroyo from Willie Taggart. Sure, Arroyo oversaw an offense that averaged 35 ppg and ranked #16 in his final year at Oregon in 2019. But after he left, Mario was FINALLY able to hire an OC who ran the scheme he wanted, Joe Moorehead. The Ducks saw a remarkable improvement, going from being 12-2 and ranked #5, to finishing 4-3 with losses to some of the worst teams in the country, and dropped from the #16 offense to the #42 offense. You just don't have the offensive vision that Mario does. Ducks fans were lucky Mario was finally able to get rid of all the loser coordinators that Taggart hired. Fortunately for UM, Cristobal was able to hire the closest thing to Joe Moorehead- his disciple, Broyles award winner Josh Gattis. We've got the offensive scheme in place, now we just need the tuff and fisical athletes.
