Penn State rocked the college football world on Friday by firing Kirk Ciarrocca as offensive coordinator after just one season, and bringing in Mike Yurcich.
Was it the right move? Time will tell. Yurcich will almost assuredly end up being a head coach somewhere in the next few years, whereas Ciarrocca was more or less content to stay as an OC. Some stability might have been nice at the position, for once.
That being said, Rock’s offense was noooooot great this year, particularly in the first 5 games. The defense didn’t help, but they were routinely put in big holes by the offense’s ineptitude and turnovers.
