Gus is in charge.

[Porkerpower]

He hasn't called a play yet, so lets just go with what we know.

Apparently Gus is having a HUGE impact on recruiting, both in and out of state so far.  One could almost say he is our instant number one recruiter.  And if you've noticed, most orals have been on offense.  Our lastest, Tuck, is one of those guys you just kinda got to trust Gus on.  And trust we do.  Gus knows the type guys he needs for his system.

So if we're recruiting to this system, and we are, then take a wild guess who will be running Gus's system?  No not Dale.

I figure at some point if this thing really takes off, Nutt is going to want to drive the boat, and that's the part that scares me to death.

This may be true but on Tuck....

Otis said that he was one of the best receivers in the SEC recruiting area (or something to that effect) yet the schools it said had offered him were us Kansas State, and Troy.  Maybe not the exact schools but you get the drift...

I hope this guy is good.  Now people are saying we got this "great" player because of Gus.  Yet if Gus had not been there and Nutt got this player, it would be "why do we compete against Troy and Kansas State for players?"

I will say this about receivers, there are alot out there that can play those positions.  Alot will go undiscovered.

Just remember the best receiver of all time Jerry Rice played at Miss Valley St., why wasnt he recruited by the big boys?

I trust Gus on this, I have a feeling Gus is gonna be a little more indepth on what he is looking for in a WR.  Im sure it isnt based on his 40 time alone.

I agree...  Speculation of failure just leads to ulcers....  Gus would not hang around if he's not in the drivers seat...  It's simply not his character.  We'll see.

I wouldnt take stock in ANYTHING Otis Kirk says but I will believe Gus if that is his opinion.

In my opinion, Gus Malzahn is the most popular, and important man on the hill right now.  Baring none, not even the head coach!

See ya

From what I hear I believe you are correct!

Gus has brought in a respect that the others have lost. He has been a winner time and time again and demands perfection. His background may only be high school but he has proved that his system works. IMO that is why everyone is so excited about this upcoming year along with the talent. If left alone he will perfect our offense and win that Broyles Award Trophy.

[Pork Twain]

That is why I say GM can win without his offense fully installed and still use some of the plays from last and sprinkle in some HUNH this year.  Execution...  We would have won at LEAST three more games last year with proper execution.  I think AW and GM will demand that from the O.
