I disagree.   I think players come and go and systems stay forever.    With any change in system there will be growing pains until you can get the kids in to run it.   Hunt clearly can't run it.   Players come and go.  To install and exciting product that would get the fan base excited would be my first priority at Syracuse.   Getting the players to run it comes next.

For example lets say Long is a perfect QB to run this system but he will not physically be ready for 2 years.   So what do you do in those 2 years because you have Hunt who can't run it?   Do you run a different offense for 2 years even though it doesn't fit what you want to do as a coach or fit the type of players you want to recruit.   Then in 2 years when Hunt leaves do then try to install your system?   Then you have the growing pains of trying to install a new offensive system? It is the chicken and the egg.   Why break what you want just to put a maybe 6-7 win team out there that would hurt the long term potential of your program.
