Regardless just saying he's worked under Urban doesn't really mean you just hand him over an offense. Is that all you got?

---

you don't have enough against making him OC.

that's all you got

don't have the time for him to cut his teeth.

to be perfectly honest, the fact that Urban passed him over for OC kinda diminishes the fact thet he has worked under Urban for 8 years.........don't you think?

btw this is a pretty impressive resume and as seen last night being promoted from WR coach to OC can be a good thing (TT)

he was passed up for someone who was with him longer and was already Asst. Head Coach. that's not a stretch dude.

I agree with you on this. But if it's between Crowton and Gonzales, who you want as the OC? I'm willing to take a chance on Gonzales if that's the only option to Crowton at this time.

my guess is that we will never see Belowpar posting anything on this site again after some of the posters calling him out....etc

---

if true, he has one hell of a thin skin. so if someone calls him out he takes his ball and goes home. if so, the man is a wuss. i never got that impression. if he has inside info, he's either a sneak or is exhibiting some gonads by posting on here. he also, may have been "caught" and shut down.

i read it and edited my post.

I've said it before and it's worth saying again - this is what did Tubbs in and from the looks of it will do Miles in too. When you are replacing Coordinators at the end of every year to "fix" the problem you're one bad hire away from getting canned (see Tony Franklin).

It's worth noting that a HC who is involved and knows what the frick he's doing doesn't let his asst's screw it up to this level. For Miles, this has happened twice in two years - a bad hire here makes it 3 years and with next years schedule a bad hire here = Miles fired.

If I'm Miles there's no way I'm hiring Gonzo as OC, good as he MIGHT be, when my livelihood and $4MM a year is on the line.

Crowton was a "proven" guy.

Yes he had a proven track record alright. Remember that article about him? The one that turned out painfully true at LSU as well.

Yep, I'd say those results are proven.
