[QUOTE="Second and Chalmers, post: 1205663, member: 527609"] "Playcalling" is a vastly, VASTLY overrated part of coaching offense, but regardless, I hope people aren't under the impression that McGee has never been a play caller before. He called the plays during his time as head coach at UAB and also at Northwestern. The question with McGee isn't his experience with designing and running and gameplanning for an offense, it's his level of success. Other than his couple seasons with Arkansas, his offenses have been just kinda OK. The pluses for McGee, and why he has been and will continue to get paid so much is obviously recruiting, but also that he fits the bill perfectly as a leader and head coach-type figure for the offensive side of the ball and a yin to Lovie's yang as a younger career college guy. They know and trust one another and yet have very divergent and complementary skill sets. [/QUOTE]
