They didn't truly realize what they had with him until 3 or 4 games into the season either.
Gus has proven to be a great offensive coach. His Tulsa teams were nasty on offense. His Arkansas team was nasty on offense, his Arkansas State team was nasty on offense and his Springdale team was nasty on offense. You can even go back two more high schools both nasty on offense. Basically his entire coaching career he has been nasty on offense except with Sean White. I'll take 25 years of nasty offense over 2 shitty years with Sean White as proof he is a great coach. Plus they whipped our ass this year with Pettway.
