Tonight on a call in question that stumped him

Just in case anyone was curious as to who is calling these ridiculous plays over and over.

He admitted this weeks ago when he said he is the one who puts together the call sheet Crowton is "allowed" to call from

He controls the entire program.

Why are some of you so caught up on this?

Les is the least competent coach we have on staff.

But LSU's followed the same trend with him BYU and Oregon did.

Go back and look at 2005 Oregon offense film

The plays aren't similar to this offense at all

This isn't news. Crowton hasn't been allowed to run his offense the way he wants since 07 and even then Les had his hands in it.

Is this because Miles just hates his offense or is it because JJ can't really comprehend more than say 1/3 of the play book, so they have simplified things as much as possible?
I still think the option they run is about as stupid as it comes either way.

so then are we criticizing crowton when les puts together all the dumbass plays that crowton has to call from? im not trying to stick up for crowton in anyway but it seems like a lot of people are trying to bash crowton more than miles but miles isnt giving crowton shite to work with

Because Miles isnt the offensive coordinator, and HC's dont usually micromanage play calling unless its their niche.

I dont think Miles has a rep as being an offensive guru, so he should probably let the coordinators he hired do their jobs.

Its obvious Miles calls the plays, he likes the run. Crowton likes to throw and we hardly ever see that

Not much of a shock

I think crowton has very little to do with this offense
