Just read the USF boards. They’re thankful he’s gone because his lackluster offense this year.
Nevermind the offense when he has a QB that is capable. With a competent QB, South Florida averaged 517 ypg. Funny how a QB can make or break you.
Fickle arse football fans can’t grasp that.

I am waiting to see what he can do with that freshman QB, Cam Smith, who redshirted this past season

criticized primarily for predictable run schemes and a lack of overall diversity
He won't have that problem when he's the one in charge and not the guy who drove UT off a cliff. The run-heavy offensive scheme is going to appeal to old-school McNeese fans who remember the good ol' days of Jessie Burton/Vick King/etc.
Also, he likely won't cost nearly as much as it would seem. His current salary is only 100K and he was due 400K after Jan. 1. So, split the difference and even if they're paying 250K, they're still getting a bargain.

A majority of USF fans wanted Sterlin gone months ago (like 98% of them)... the FireGilbert webpages, #FireGilbert Twitter rants and stadium banners were really in full effect by the UCF game. I'm in the camp with most of the McNeese fans on here - I believe he's a great hire.
The majority of USF fans on the other hand believe we're finally getting revenge back on you guys for the gut punching we took from McNeese State in Willie Taggart's first game as our head coach. They believe Gilbert is a terrible coach. I just don't see it the same way and believe Strong limited the speed of the offense that Gilbert wanted to run. Maybe the truth is somewhere in between.
Charlie Strong and Sterlin Gilbert were given the keys to a great offense last season with the best QB we've had in our short history. We went 11-2 losing two games in the last two minutes, but you might say we were expected to run the table and fans were questionably upset. Watching HB dive after HB dive game after game pretty much caused the fans to lose their minds. Losing our final five games didn't help his cause either.
Your fans are celebrating an upside hire. Our fans are celebrating Sterlin leaving. Funny how that works. Two years ago we were gloating about Charlie Strong coming to USF believing UT pulled the plug too early. Now I'm in the Fire Strong camp after watching our team the last two years.
Isn't being a fan a wonderful thing...
