I wanted to see what kind of changes Muschamp has made to the offensive side of the ball since taking the job. One of the criticisms of him at Florida was he recruited defense only and it made him struggle on offensive the last 2 years he was there. From 2015 to what we should see in 2017, lets look at the changes in the roster. (left most walk on players off)

As you can see, we will still be very young next year but Muschamp has successfully purged and upgraded the roster from 2 years ago by miles. The size, ability, and ratings of all the skill players have increased. With another year under the new system and another year of Dillman, it should be an exciting year on offense next season.
