Grey: Check earlier in the thread and you will see my thoughts on Roof. Solid hire. I think Roof + Hux will be better for both, much like Tenuta helped make Archer serviceable, and Archer probably balanced out “Rock” (as some GT fans called Tenuta).
As for Drink being pass happy, his season as Boise’s OC was very telling. Go look at some box scores and watch some film. They lost a LOT of games (by their standards) that year and in the games they lost, they were very unbalanced (pass heavy). It’s not like they didn’t have the horses to run, as they clearly did (and went back to the next year). In NC State’s losses last year with Drink, we also weren’t balanced. There are clear trends.
Drink is a disciple of Malzahn. I’ve seen him credit Gus many times. Gus is a pass first, take what the defense gives you, kind of guy. Stands to reason the padawan is as well.
