Taking my life in my hands here, but...
I think Sark did that this year. This is the first time in his tenure at Texas that I can remember him calling plays for the team he has rather than the team he wants. At the beginning of the season, it was clear that he wanted to run his pro-style offense, with a lot of 12 personnel and play action. He wanted to run the ball to set up those long developing pass plays. That shit wasn't working and, to his credit, he moved away from it. I think he abandoned the run more than he should have, but that seems like a biproduct of him trying to figure out how to maximize the offense.
In the past, I think Sark keeps calling his offense and if the players don't execute, it's on them. He definitely did that in 2022. He was more versatile in 2023, but I think that was more about us having the right personnel rather than him adapting. Same thing in 2024, except with worse skill personnel (no elite RB, no Worthy or Mitchel) but we managed to get by on with a veteran QB and OL. Sark was still calling his offense, though, and it almost lost us same games.
This year it finally caught up with us. We lacked any elite talent on offense, outside of QB, and did not have the experience at QB or OL that we enjoyed last season. And we saw the results - everything on offense sucked until Sark got into "panic mode" and started call a spread offense. Once he realized that was the only kind of offense that worked for us, he kept with it. But I think the UGA game showed why Sark was reticent to make that change - the spread is designed to make the offense easier for less talented teams. But it won't work on elite defenses, who have the talent and the coaching to negate the benefits of a spread offense. You need something that confuses them and puts them in conflict, which is what Sark's offense is designed to do.
TL;DR - I think Sark adapted this season, which is something he really has not done and which I doubted he was capable of. I wish he had done it sooner, but I understand why he didn't. Silver lining. Hindsight is 20/20. blah blah blah.
