Denbrock is a perfectly fine OC as long as he has the QB room to operate his system. He's not going to get Kiffin creative if his QB room is limiting his scheme. I think middle of the road is a fair description for him. He's not bad and he's not great. His scheme for half of the season last year was questionable. Do you remember when he was marching out heavy TE sets driving down the field and took our talented WRs off it? He took forever to adjust in some games. Partly why we lost to FSU was his late adjustments. I'm pretty sure BK told him to stop that shite on TEs after he started seeing it on film.
There's actually tons of criticisms I can throw out on Denbrock especially the first half of the season.

I'm not saying Denbrock was without fault but calling him middle of the road is a bit below what he's accomplished IMO. I think he's a solid tier higher than average base don what he was able to do year 1 here and the last couple years at Cinci having some good offenses. He definitely isnt some young innovative mind but he seems to know how to play to strengths to the most part.
Remember, we had zero running game the last 2 years prior to this past season, he figured out a way to have one with a heavy committee approach and a walk on leading the way. The RBs all averaged between 4.9 and 6 yards per carry.
He also improved the pass game, despite our best receiver arguably taking the year off mostly in Boutte...and with a QB half the fanbase hates because of his gun shy mentality

All this while having an OL with 2 true freshmen starting at OT on it...which is pretty much unheard of in CFB much less the SEC. Oh and a true freshman TE taking over as well.
All in all I'd call Denbrock better than just "average"
