Yep, I think I do.

He definitely had his limitations but his quarterbacks were effective and so was the ofense when he was able to find a groove (granted, he wasn't always able to find a groove).  I've heard the arguemnt that he gets no credit for Vince because he just let Vince be Vince (which seems to me to have been a brilliant piece of coaching, even though I don't buy it).  Colt was what, a 2* that bumped up to 3*?  Goes and wins 45 games with 70 some odd completion %.  Applewhite, Simms were solid and the backup situation was always good outside of Gilbert.

I'm not forgetting how frustrating he could be but he's a lot better than what we've had since.

 
I kinda was thinking the same thing, but didn't dare put it out there. Props to you!

 
I miss Bryan Harsin. He had little talent on offense when he was here. I thought he was creative when you consider he had Case McCoy and an inexperienced David Ash at QB.

You don't miss Davis, you miss Vince, Colt, and Simms. Applewhite was a Mackovic recruit.

Of course, I've never been certain how much of the much of the offense was Davis and how much was Mack. I believe Mack tampered-a lot.

 
Harsin orchestrated a game plan. He didn't just call plays. It was a thing of beauty, even though he didn't always have the personnel he would like to have. I loved watching his work.

 
I never understood the hatred many felt towards him but I know he's not coming back.

I didn't nor do I hate Watson or Swoopes but they simply wasn't getting the job done. Time to move forward and hopefully turn this around.
