I can't defend Dimel this year, but his offenses have mostly been solid during his career. My understanding from talking to some former players was that Dimel has always called the majority of the offense during 2.0, Miller was mainly involved in obvious passing situation. The injuries haven't helped, but this year Dimel never seemed to find a rhythm or figure out what to do with this team. We've had two of the worst offensive games I can remember (Vandy and TCU) and yesterday was on that path for 3 quarters.
If he does stay, I think we'll build the offense to look much more like we used with Waters, especially considering Thompson's skills and the returning receivers. This year's team with Ertz was built much more like the Klein teams and I don't know that we could completely adjust mid season with the injury situation at QB.
