Guilbeau was on 690 am earlier and made a good point for once. These clock problems didn't happen under Fisher. Which makes him think it's Crowton.

That actually is a good assesment and if true would lead one to believe Miles doesn't interfere in the playcalling as much as some think. Unless he is tuat fed up with Crowton that he has took over since Jimbo left but I highly doubt that

Guilbeau said last night he was thinking this team loses twice this year. I almost fell out of my chair.

I think it's Crowton causing the snafus but it's Miles' arse on the line.

Really? What about Miles' attempt to expend our last TO after an interception against Tennessee in 05?

If he is that fed up with Crowton, why doesn't he fire him??? It continues to happen so instead of this being Crowton's fault, it's Miles' fault for not firing him in the first place.

Either way the buck stops with Miles if what Guilbeau says is factual then Miles definantly needs to step in and solve the problem.

Actually that makes sense. Remember back in 05 and 06 all of the last minute comebacks Russell had. (Tennessee, Ole Miss, Bama off the top of my head) There was no confusion, no doubt about what play was being called and no trouble getting the plays in on time.

Now enter Crowton. And you have mass confusion on the sideline, Jefferson looks lost on every play, both QB make the same mistakes over and over, we have trouble getting players in on time when the game is on the line.

didn't Miles have a lot of playclock running down issues with Jimbo and it was all blamed on Jimbo since Miles is never at fault?

That was a dumb arse moment for sure, but it wasn't quite the same situation.
Arizona State, Auburn, Tennessee, & Ole Miss. 4 games in 05/06 we either won at the end or tied in regulation to win in OT. And I don't remember anything close to the kind of issues we've had in the last 8 games.

I'm guessing $$$. From what's been posted on here, they have to buy him out if he leaves before the end of the season, right? It would be smarter to keep him on, take over the play-calling (or give it to Gonzales), and let him pursue other opportunities at the end of the year.

the only game of his at OSU i watched was his final bowl game when he was a candidate for this job. They lost 33-7 and looked about as prepared as any Les Miles team does.

well, since you seem to think so, why don't you provide that information and then we'll all know....

Maybe someone should check into him at Oregon La Tech and Chicago? See if they had clock management Issues. Then check out CLM at Ok St and see if they occurred their too?

It is GC he is too fancy for his own good. Constantly subbing ppl in and out on offense. Picking plays at random. Etc. The thing is, and I've seen it since Flynn and RP in 07. He waits to the very last second to call the play and send the personnel on the field. I remember times where Flynn or RP would be like come on come on, and we would get a delay or burn a time out. This hurts especially late in the game when running out of time. It's also kills all your momentum.
