Second paragraph may well be true, but there's not really anything in the history of midseason coaching changes that supports the idea that you can change coordinators and instantly be 30 or 40 points better. That's just not reality. And if this guy was so good and innovative then why didn't he have a job as a coordinator somewhere else already? I'm not saying that means he's a bad coach but you talk as if they just brought in Lincoln Riley to run their offense.
Again, infinitely more likely that Texas just doesn't have a very good defense to begin with and in addition to that played a little worse than usual coming off the OU game than that Kansas will suddenly be scoring 40+ on everyone going forward.
I don't know much at all about the guy. . . Just like you, me, and everyone else here didn't know much about Lincoln before he arrived at OU, and even after he got there. I do seem to be sensing a similar buzz about his talent.
I'll also point out how, "not worried at all," everyone here was about Kyler Murray. . . Until he ripped us a new one.
Not saying this guy is Lincoln 2.0, but for you to assume he's not, just "because," seems a stretch in the face of some pretty strong evidence to the contrary: Kansas scored more points against UT than did LSU. Now, how many times since this season began have we seen someone on here post, "We should throw a bunch of money at that LSU OC," based on a very small sample?
