I get it guys, Lovie should be holding a press conference every week to update the fans.
Let's be real here, this is revisionist theory at it's finest. McGee was extremely highly thought of when he first arrived. There were questions of how much control he had of the offense at Louisville, but let's be clear. That was considered a HOME RUN hire for us at the time. We pulled an OC from a much higher rated program. McGee was also getting looks from other higher profile programs if I remember correctly (wasn't Oklahoma interested?).
Not everything works out, and clearly McGee needed more weapons for his offense to be successful. Let's hope that Lovie is able to pull another rabbit out of his hat, except this time the OC will be successful with the pieces he has to work with...
Oklahoma wasn't interested, they had just hired Lincoln Riley (and we saw how that worked out).
Also, if we are recalling past events, let's review them accurately. The hire of McGee was questioned, because we have seen the Louisville offense be the same, regardless of who the OC was. Petrino has his dirty fingerprints all over it and we knew that McGee had little to no control over play calling.
Furthermore, I am not saying that Lovie needs a press conference to update us for the search and the lack of new assistances. That would be the definition of pointless. I am just saying the fact they haven't hired anyone yet and given how long the hiring period has been leads me to believe that they have swung and missed several times.
