Steve, I agree that none of us know whether Muschamp will ultimately be successful. I'm just a TV watcher so I don't have any inside info but honestly I don't think those that are on the inside know either. It was a crapshoot when he was hired and 3 yrs later it still is.

Quinton Dunbar and Solomon Patton are light years ahead of where they were just a year ago. Considering the fact that they aren't thought to be that talented, and play at a position where to really shine you need a decent OL, QB, and to some extent a good running game to take some of the pressure off, I think I see development there.--
The OLmen that have been healthy, excepting the guys that were class filler types, seemed to have improved, Jonathan Harrison will be among the first guys at his position to be drafted this year.
How well did Mike Gillespie develop under the previous regime - he rushed for what - 1200 yards last year?
It's easy to look at the rag-tag , injury depleted group that haven't played together enough to develop much chemistry and spout the "no development" line, but I think there's more to that than meets the eye.
I'm not happy with our offense any of the past three seasons, and I think that if Muschamp is to survive beyond next year he will need to be willing to let whomever the new OC is open things up and take more chances, but I don't think, given the incredible bad luck with injuries this year, that he/we could have avoided the train wreck we've all been witness to, despite the philosophical bent of the coaching staff.
I'd hate for us to look back in a few years and realize that Muschamp made all of his on the job training mistakes here, got run out of town on a rail, and ended up being a thorn in our side for years to come.
Of course there's always a chance that he will never get there. I certainly don't pretend to know that for sure. I hope the guys that get to make the call do!

But what will the staff do with them after they enroll? I have not seen any development in the offensive players in the past 3 years.
