It's almost like getting a clone. By now they've had thousands of reps together, if Rhett doesn't know this offense no one does.
I'm not so sure it'll take that long with the defense. What they need most is a change of attitude. We've got over half a dozen DE's, 4 DT's and quite a few DB's who've played. Depth at LB maybe an issue, but we can adjust. If you give young men a sense of direction they'll succeed, I've never seen it fail.

The idea that Rhett's supreme knowledge of Malzahn's offense is automatically going to translate to wins in the SEC escapes me. He isn't going to be throwing the passes, blocking defensive linemen or running the football. New Mexico State surely knew their offense, right? How did that work out for them? You have to get offensive talent to execute the scheme that is commensurate with the quality of defensive talent they will compete against. When that talent is more or less equal, he will have to be able to outwit defensive coordinators that are more experienced. Look, I hope the guy hangs the moon but his knowledge of the offense is about the only advantage he will have in this league.

Some of you sound like Gus is going to be gone while Rhett is running the offense all by himself...
I was kind of surprised that Gus even hired an OC. Some head coaches ARE the OC. I thought it couldn't have gone down any better, actually.
Give Rhett the hands-on experience as an OC, give him more responsibilities and therefore a greater incentive to produce.
If Gus had brought in an experienced OC who ran anything different than what Gus runs we may have had Chizik-gate all over again. Gus will sign off on the game plan each week. Don't think he won't be the man.
