I think 53 meant that with Smith they are more of a dink dunk offense and more of wide open offense with Kaep.

I took it to be that a coach, who has been discussed as a possible replacement for MS, was being praised for adapting his offensive system to the particular talents of the QB at hand. An ability similarly exhibited by our current coaching staff and for which many a poster has failed to give them credit.

At this point, other than a couple of folks, I don't know or care who likes/tolerates/hates MS. Just seems inconsistent to praise one coach for adapting and not do the same for others.

Yup. And I agree that Kyle deserves praise for his adaptivity this year. Our unique "pistol" often works out like an adapted old single wing, with true "quarter-"backs, "half-"backs, and "full-"backs. This allows the team to play to Griff's strengths, develop him slowly, but still be successful offensively. Kyle has done things that no one else is doing and deserves credit for this.

Now if we can just work on Kyle's short-yardage play calling...

Agreed. (I would add stopping silly penalties to that).
