Is Lincoln Riley overrated?

Here's the issue. We tend to have a strange rating system when it comes to HC as in it's just how the team does. He is an offensive mind and they have been unequivocally great on offense. It's the defense that is letting them down. How much do you put on a HC to improve the side of the ball he is not an expert at? This is true in college and the NFL. It's really hard to know.

Further your dealing with a school and conference that hasn't been good on defense in like a decade and he has only been there 3 years.

EDIT: Where are people getting that he's been the HC for 5+ years and has several embarrassing playoff performances? I know that got hammered out of the gate against Bama but they made a game of it only down 11 going into the 4th. UGA was a heartbreaker. Only 1 bad performance and that was with his worst QB against the best team we've seen in a while.

what do you do if you have an offensive genius for a head coach and you have been unequivocally great on defense but the offense is letting you down?

asking for me
