<p>gunit, good coaches ADAPT to the players that they have. Rodriguez was unwilling to change his offense and forced Mallett out (or at least didn’t make an honest effort to retain him). </p>
<p>Hoke, on the other hand, realizes how special DRob is, even though he wouldn’t fit into a pro style offense. So he did everything in his power to keep DRob here, and it WORKED. That is what a good coach does. The evidence is in the results.</p>
