I think enough time has gone by to reflect on this past season.  I am as confident as ever that Dino is the man for the job and it's just a matter of time before we are back to winning (at least 6 wins) on a regular basis.  We saw what could be with the Clemson game.  We also saw a team fight their a$$ off and compete on the road in some legendary road venues.  What failed us was depth.  Dino has had 2 classes.  In those 2 classes, including transfers, he has quickly improved the overall size and athleticism.  The only problem is those guys are still going to be young.  Throw this past recruiting class in and you are going to see an even bigger improvement in size.  I do want to see an improvement on offense.  For being an offensive guru I have been a little surprised that the scoring hasn't been better.  The yards are there, but they haven't turned into points.  imo it could be a couple things.  As I said yards haven't been an issue, but they have really struggled inside the red zone.  I think the lack of a run game has really hurt the efficiency inside the 20.  It looks like RB has been addressed this last recruiting(transfer) class.  Let's see if we see some improvements inside the red zone.
The other factor, imo, may not be a popular one, but is QB play.  Dungey is an absolute warrior, but he isn't the type of QB Dino prefers to run this offense.  The short passing game requires a high % passer.  Dungey is many things, but accuracy isn't one of his best attributes.  I actually think a QB better suited for this system would improve the overall offense.  Dungey is good enough where he can will us to 6 wins, but I don't think we will see this offense at it's best until there is a QB that can complete passes at an elite level/
