Gary Crowton

I dont believe them until i hear it from Crowton.

I doubt if we'll hear anything at all on the subject past pure speculation unless:

*BelowPar mentions it

or

*He up and quits at which point you can draw your own conclusions

If Crowton leaves, we're dead. That means that there are serious problems and they won't be solved until Miles is gone.

Who would want to come here if that happened?

The Co-DC thing can be seen as an aberration and a fixable problem. It was a one year experiment that backfired. Combine that with freshmen QB's and you have a recipe for disaster, which is what we had. But, it is fixable.

If our National Championship winning OC bails, we are done, because it means that the problems are at the top and that is not fixable until we start over.

I hope it is just a stupid rumor.

anybody know why Crowton would be unhappy?

Les is over-riding his playcalling

Coordinators usually dont care for that too much

Mebbe he doesn't have enough control of the offense?

I hadn't heard that.

it's just speculation based on what people saw the last 2 games. Les holding the play sheet in the 2nd half and the noticeaable shift in conservative playcalling subsequently.

could that have anything to do with having a new qb in with limit knowledge on the playbook

Ummmm ... let's see, LSU had a disappointing, crappy season. Crowton won't win any awards for not adjusting his play-calling at critical times given the lack of experience of his QBs.

So, lemme get this straight, half, if not the majority of the people on the Rant bitch about how CLM is just a "CEO on the sidelines" who "manages things", righto?

While Miles may or may not have ever over-ridden Crowton or Fisher - it's nothing more than speculative rumor at this point - if he did so at some point because he felt the play-calling was exceeding the experience of his QB, this would tick off everyone who bitches that he's only a dolt and/or "CEO on the sidelines", yes?

Go figure.
