Blast away at me but how is Spurrier's offense congruent with Sumlins? Seems like Sumlin may be trying to move away from his bread and butter because the bread is turning into toast and the butter is rancid.
The reason I could see that it works is because Sumlin for better or worse has decided to adopt a CEO model. He is going to let his coordinators do their thing. Spurrier is a guy who will own the offense and has his system (something Spav doesn't have). Plus, Spurrier is an SEC lifer with success and respect. Basically he is an older Chavis for offense. Hopefully, Sumlin saw that having SEC experience on defense improved that unit greatly (including Chavis 75% of our defensive coaches have coached in the SEC prior to being at A&M).
I think that is something that needs to be considered for the new OC (whether it is Spurrier or not).
