EuroGator;n90054 said:I'm not sure he should - not that he's better at it, but he is (as evidenced by this board's thoughts) ultimately responsible for it. However, when I say that it probably means less to me than to others as I'm not confident that he's as involved as others think he is. I think he makes the final decision (after hearing contributions from the staff) about QB playing time and when to try to go for it or run out the clock before half. ...that kind of thing. I'm sure he is the leading influencer in the overall game plan, but I don't think he's telling Roper not to call a deep ball (we've seen a ton of those - just thrown by the wrong arm) or to call a QB run.
In the end, he's accountable for it and should be involved.
Roper said the decision on a QB switch would be Muschamp's. WM himself has repeatedly said that he wasn't going to change who we were, and continued his "downhill running" mantra. We're on our 3rd OC, and little has ultimately changed. It's on Will Muschamp. He's still convinced that his system will work, which is why we still look the way we do.
