I think it is wishful thinking at this point to say that Crowton won't return. Hopefully Miles understands that a change needs to happen this offseason

the offense is so predictable. i can tell you exactly what play it is and what person the play is going to just by the personal. it worked the 1st yr here but after that he hasnt changed a thing.

Sounds ridiculous but I can guess 75% of the plays. Watching the game with the wife and started calling what would be run, she thought it was pretty funny. I told her its anything but funny.

How is it that Crowton can go from being the #1 coordinator in the country, two yrs ago, to being garbage?

speaking of Jimbo, he's using a lot of the same sets in the FSU games I watch, but I can't call his plays as easily anymore. it's like bizarro OCs.

From what I hear, there will be changes on the offensive side of the ball at the end of the 2009 season. Contrary to popular belief, GC runs the offense. Coach Miles DOES NOT meddle in the plays. Perhaps he should, but from what I know, it's Crowton calling and putting the game plan together almost exclusively with Miles approval. Why he does not override some of the calls, I don't know the answer. Look at Coach's comments regarding Crowton after the UF game where it seems he kinda threw GC under the bus. Surprisingly !

Contrary to popular belief, Coach Miles is more a Big 12 want to pass 60/40 vs. run. Yes he Coached in Big 10 but he is more pass happy than most think.

GC received raise only this year, not a contract extension. From what I am told, last year of a 3 year deal and hear that >70% chance GC will not return. Said this will play out like the co-DC last year. Hopefully!!

The talk about Borges coming to LSU are incorrect and from what I have heard. No decision has been made at this time according to what I hear. I also heard there was a heated argument after the UF game between Coach and GC, and that a parting of the ways after the season is almost a forgone conclusion. Don't shoot the messenger, take it for what it's worth. Just relaying info I have heard.

Nope. Don't shoot the messenger dude!! Just telling you what I hear from folks who know a lot more than you.

3 year contract for GC. No extension was given, only a raise. Last year of his contract. Again, just telling what's told to me.

Was told that the Al Borges stuff to Tigers has no legs.

this has been the case with Crowton everywhere...

BYU he went 12-2, then 5-7, 4-8.

Oregon he goes 10-2 then 7-6.
