TheFranchise - considering that I'm a college football coach and I have been coaching in the same offense that Hal Mumme uses for years I think I know just a little bit more about how he & Mike Leach think relative to running backs & offensive football in general. Thanks though

Todd Monken, it was who Miles wanted two hire when he hired Crowton.

What I'm saying is if Miles can't co-exist with Crowton and the offense became some no-identity conglomeration of i-formation spread short-side option sometimes dink and dunk sometimes throw downfield what makes anyone think Miles can co-exist with a pass-every-down type like Mumme or Leach.

And I don't want to lose Ware or Ford or any of the other backs for the same reasons that Texas Tech lost Shaud Williams.

quote:

in 1999, when Williams rushed for 658 yards on 112 carries. Tech then changed to a pass-based offense in 2000 under Leach, prompting Williams to consider a transfer. He rushed for 223 yards on 55 carries in 2000. He also caught 48 passes for 299 yards receiving.


Secondly, how sure are you that I'm not equally and/or more familiar (READ: Blazers) with not only their largely similar offensive schemes but the men themselves? Just saying.

Regardless, Miles clearly values the run. Leach and Mumme clearly don't share Miles importance on the same. Miles and Crowton clearly don't share the same offensive philosophy and it clearly lead to, at best, an inability to get plays called timely and, at worst, utter offensive disfunction. So, why would any LSU fan want any coach whose offensive philosophy isn't more-closely congruent with the HC?
