Miami dismisses Gattis as OC after one season

Miami has actually fired Josh Gattis as offensive coordinator after one season, coach Mario Cristobal revealed Friday.When Gattis was hired a year ago from Michigan, the move was commonly applauded. Gattis had actually simply won the Broyles Award as the leading assistant coach in the country after helping the Wolverines make the College Football Playoff with a balanced offending approach.But in his lone season in Miami, the results were not what was expected. Returning quarterback Tyler Van Dyke had a hard time in the brand-new plan even prior to he missed out on 3 games with a shoulder injury, tossing for 1,844 backyards, 10 goals and 5 interceptions– a far cry from the 25 touchdowns he threw in 2021. Miami ranked No. 86 in the country in total offense, averaging 367.1 backyards. That was below a top-20 offense in 2021 that balanced 448.8 lawns. Intensifying the problems was an inability to run the ball, as the Hurricanes averaged 3.7 yards per carry.They ended up playing 3 quarterbacks after Van Dyke got hurt and the Canes finished the season 5-7. It appeared clear modifications would have to be made on offense, particularly with Van Dyke returning for an essential junior season, and Gattis was not the only departure. Previously this month, quarterbacks coach and passing game planner Frank Ponce left Miami to return to his former job as Appalachian State offending coordinator.
