Honestly, this year to me compares historically more to Emory Bellard's 1979 season. He beat Tennessee and Florida and then flamed out. Offense struggled all year. Had a team coming off of probation so it wasn't a great situation either. Bellard is known for the wishbone much like Leach is known for the Air Raid. Once Bellard got John Bond the next year his offense began to click.
Sure hope Leach recruits better than Bellard. Lack of good recruiting was Bellard's downfall. Bellard had a good recruiting year his first year, when he got Bond and a bunch of other good recruits, then he had terrible years after that.
