New Take:
Tyke-We wanted him, he was worried the NFL would have a lockout or something pretty soon and he was a little worried about that so back to the NCAA ranks sounded good, I guess he had a change of heart

Crowton-I don't think is quite as for sure as I thought. Miles has definitely talked to possible candidates, but there is talk around LSU that it might be too expensive to buy him out at this point. That is out of Miles hand I believe. We will see what happens.

If he stays, will he COMMIT to a spread?

I dont care who the OC is at LSU..Somehow someway the OC and the Head Coach has to be on the same page.. Its not only in the play calling and just personnel on the field..Even recruiting philosophy...We have too many kids on this roster fit for one scheme, and the other half fit for another..

Find a philosophy that works for u, hire a coordinator that will do it, and recruit towards it, enough of this stuff.

I don't think Miles will let that happen.

If I were Miles, I would take a pay cut to save my job and get a new coordinator. Crowton stays, he might now be there in 2011.

Should I just go ahead and buy tickets to the Chick-fil-a bowl now or wait and hold out hoping for the Cotton bowl?

Talk about throwing cold water. With Crowton still at LSU nest year, Its sounding more and more like Gerry Dinardo Keeping Tepper. im still hoping for an OC change.

As stated before, Crowton will be to Miles what Tepper was to Dinardo...
BUT... if this is true

That is out of Miles hand I believe
then even if the end up with a bottom of the barrel offense next year and finish with 3-5 losses, Miles can say "Well, I wanted to get rid of my OC last year and you wouldn't let me."...

Do just like Sean Payton did. Use some of his money to get the Defensive Coordinator he wanted. It would work on offense for Miles as well.

offense ranked 110th out of 120 in the country...

I wish I could suck at my job and still keep it.

miles bashers should be doing backflips, keeping crowton and stud = no miles in '11.

horrible news if both these guys stay.

hopefully alleva or the bos or whoever's in charge of wanting to keep crowton is ready for the ship to go down.

......or maybe that's what they want to happen???

So let's see. having difficulty buying out Crowton at $450K/yr. 1 to 3 years left on contract??

But we are going to buy Miles out next year for $10-15 million. Don't know where this type of coin will come from if having problems with $1 million??

Don't recall coaches knocking down LSU's doors when Miles hired! Petrino, Miles, Nutt and a rumor of Jags Coach.

Miles, win or lose, may be here a long time???
