If anyone left the TV on after our game and watched Bama take UF apart, it should be very obvious why we need a new coaching staff. Does anyone really believe that LM and GC have a chacne in hell of beating Saban? It would take a fluke of monumental proportions.

Do you realize it was Les Miles that made the game winning play-call after the penalty? Or that is was Crowton trying to send in receivers with the seconds ticking off? If you look at the replay the linemen were set and ready to go. Confusion started when JJ saw the receivers coming on and calling the TEs off. It was expected to be 2 straight run plays by everyone that was already on the field


THIS
The HAT made the winning call

I believe in Miles. Admittedly he's not the best clock manager but there is alot more to college coaching than managing the end of the game.

According to the Great Nick Saban recruiting is 78% of coaching in college football. And it's hard to disagree with that.

I truly believe Crowton is the BIG idiot in the room...and it just makes Miles look like one also. If we had a real OC...i dont believe we have all of that cunfusion in the last seconds of the game.

If we get rid of Crowton after this year...I will give Miles ONE and only ONE year to see if things change.


Crowton may be an idiot, but Miles hired him. If what you are saying is true, then Les must be held accountable for Crowton remaining.

Alot of people want to point at Crowton as the main problem. I disagree. Miles is the Chief and should be managing the tribe accordingly. If Crowton is hurting the Tribe, its Les Miles' job to do something.

Les has done nothing and the same things continue to happen over and over again.

I dont know him personally but he seems to be a respectable man. I do know what I see of him as a Head Coach and he is not getting the job done.

If you have kids and the kids continue to get in trouble every day; people are going to look at the parents...right?

He lost me after the Ole Miss 2009 debacle, and yesterday was the exact same thing, except TN screwed up at the very end.

Nothing will change under Miles. This is Les Miles football at LSU.

You didn't answer the question. Which means you agree that he has no other qualities as a head coach - player development, game management, good representative for the University, etc...

Does it not bother you to watch the mistakes and quality of play on the field? Does it not bother you to be the laughingstock of sports center? Does it not bother you to look at the talent on the field and realize the what could be?

What's his winning percentage as LSU's coach? Apparently his recruiting skills are good enough to offset some of his weaknesses.

Crowton caused the frick up by calling for substitutions.


Choc..you will NEVER get these idiots to see that miles never had a playsheet in his hand the last drive the call came from the pressbox and if crowton is such a genius y not call the play from the same formation thats on your goaline cheet sheet? or do wat even high school OC's can do call two play in the huddle with no timesouts left?..but in the end it's his fault..although crowton is and idiot and as a head coach you are supposed to be able to count on your OC..So IMO get rid of the OC!! He is not doin his job nor has he for 2 years now..He's had enough time to correct his calling

I have been, and will continue to be, a "PosiTiger" by nature. I still don't think Miles is a "bad" coach. However, I am done defending him.

He has the opportunity to fool me and make me a defender again, but for now he's dead to me.

Who knew Miles was a football genius. What other coach could come up with a play to fool the opposing defense into putting too many players on the field with the clock ticking to zero, no timeouts, the ball on the 1 and the game on the line. Pure genius, the play "32 sub rousekie" will now be widely used by other coaches.

Do you really believe Our OC did not call the play? Your the idiot!!! Is is so hard for you to believe that Miles doesnt call the plays..i know everybody hates him and shite but CROWTON is the PLAYCALLER!! Get that shite through your heads!! He called for the Subs!! From the Box to T. C. on the sidelines, to the QB.
