Yeah, my point really doesn't have anything to do with the "he had a vision all along narrative" - whatever the heck that might be. I would never argue that what happened in 2019 was his exact "vision." I do think, a lot of what was done in 2018 helped us get to that point, though.

Which is why it's hard for me to look back and somehow lament on it being a "lost season."


go back to the whole quote (and what I'm responding to)

if O wanted spread/RPO, there are a ton of guys he could have hired for 2017. if that was his vision in 2016, why wasn't it our reality in 2017?


the "waste" is that of a year of spread/RPO as O's vision

Looked to me like he was feeling things out, bringing different guys in (both coaching and player wise) to get to a point of consistency on both sides of the ball, and steadily improving each year, until he got a glorious season in his third year.

To me, that's what you want a coach to do. It seems sort of hard to expect everything would just be done perfectly from the start and there wouldn't be a speed bump here and there along the way. I surely don't see how you could say with any certainty it wouldn't have happened with any of the potential alternatives taking over what he did.
