There’s not much reason to think Bryan McClendon will be a good offensive coordinator for South Carolina’s football team.
There’s also no reason to think he won’t be.
The fact is, there’s just not much to McClendon’s resume. He’s been a collegiate assistant for nine years, and he’s called the plays for one game, the Outback Bowl. The Gamecocks won the game 26-19 behind 23 second-half points. So that’s good. They also averaged 7.3 yards on their first 11 possessions. So that’s bad. All of that happened against one of the best, and most schematically challenging defenses, in the country.
