I'd take any coach who was serious about coaching up his QB rather than try to hide the QB's deficiencies with scheme and personnel.  I don't understand how Hogan hasn't been coached up to improve his weaknesses.

I see one of two scenarios and I'm not sure which one is the truth or if it's somewhere in between:
1.  This is all that Kevin Hogan is as a QB.  He can't drop back, read the whole field, and consistently deliver the ball in the midrange.  If this is the case then in the short term you need to change the scheme to emphasize his strengths rather than continue to hope that he will be more like the QB you want to have.  In the longer term you need to have an open competition for QB in spring ball and hope you have a QB on the roster who can do a better job of running the offense you want to have next season.

2.  The QB coach (Pritchard) has failed to coach him up.  If this is the case then you need to go find the Duane Akina of QB coaches and pay him whatever it takes.

I think Shaw needs to do both of these, as well as bring in an OC from outside the program and reverse roles with him.  Shaw has input on plays but the playcalling falls to the new OC.  Is the last part a pipe dream?  Probably.
