I'm interested to see how this all plays out. Mixon had a great year under him, but the underperformers still underperformed, so if the OL isn't addressed in FA, it's hard to see them making a major step up.
Also, I don't really put too much into the whole run game coordinator part. That's fine that he'll help with that part of the game, but the OC/playcaller still has to utilize what's being done in the proper way, which means this all still comes to Taylor. For all we know, Turner was a brilliant run game coordinator but the plays he drew up for Zac to use weren't used properly.
I find it interesting that this guy has been an OL coach for 15 years and bounces from one team to the next every couple of years. I think he's an upgrade over Turner, but I'm not dancing naked in the snow to celebrate this hire, either.
