That's what mystifies me about Addazio haters. It's Meyer's offense. And, Meyer is wearing a head set too. So, why blame the whole offense on one guy? I guess fans just have to have a scapegoat. Really, it was a combination of problems that caused the offense to stutter. 3 coaches lost, 11 players on to the NFL and injuries to key members of the offense. (Demps, etc). There are other factors such as youth in key positions. Bottom line: we'll be back and we could have done it with the staff we had. Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry

We now know that he was not only doing his job last year but also doing Coach Meyer's as well. It is true that he did not do well as an offensive coordinator, but let me remind everyone that under Urban Meyer, the entire offensive coaching staff (including Urban Meyer) did the game planning. I don't know if Dan Mullen was a strong enough personality to override the rest of the coaches, or if some of the other assistant coaches that we lost were more influential than we realized in offensive game planning. I am proud of the effort Coach Addazio is doing at Florida. I wish him the best. I still contend that the very best option for Coach Muschamp is to retain Addazio as the Assistant Head Coach and offensive line coach. I am hoping for that outcome. If Coach Addazio does take a head coaching job elsewhere, we will find out just how good of a head coach and offensive mind that he has.
