Les' constant meddling or bad OC hires in general?

Miles

Explain why from Studrawa to the day he got fired the offense looked exactly the same. I blame the Parkinson's, who knows what the offense would have looked like if Krags would've had his chance.

I still like him as a man. He's a great person, strange as hell, but a genuinely good person. If he wasn't so stubborn I would have loved to keep him. But he lacked the ability to evolve with the game and he had to go.

Was wondering when we'd get around to blaming Miles

Some worked out better than others for different reasons but he always brought in highly successful and proven guys from various different philosophies and never went cheap

Outside of Crowton, none of those guys listed do anything prove my point false.

I cannot speak for Kragthorpe because we never saw it but Stud and Cameron obviously shared a similar vision as Miles. This, in my opinion, is bringing in yes-men. Miles wasn't going to bring in someone young that would challenge is pre-conceived notions.

As for Kragthorpe, it isn't like his offense's at Louisville were blowing the doors off people. His last year they were 71 in score offense. His last period as an OC was A&M in the late 90s, they ran a very similar offense back then.

I am not concerned with Les' hiring of position coaches and recruiters.

There was no philosophy change in LSU's style from 2010 to 2016. Outside of one year with 2 stud NFL WRs, NFL RB and a QB with a massive cannon, the offense was terrible. 2011 was good but that was a function of an elite defense staying off the field. Props to him bringing in that talent but an offense that rely solely on elite talent will struggle in down years.

Go look at Cam Cameron's resume. There's no way you can convince me he all of a sudden just forgot how to coach QB's when he got here.

I have said over and over again that Cameron's offense with Ravens was called one of the most antiquated offenses in the NFL.

They were a heavy running team that also liked to throw the deep ball. Ran the fewest 3 wide receiver sets in the NFL and the most 2 TE sets in the NFL. It's extremely hard to take a spread qb and turn them into a pro-style dropback passer.
