something from that article isn't adding up:

quote:

Crowton's last year of his three-year contract next season

quote:

He signed a three-year contract with LSU following the 2006 season after leaving the offensive coordinator job at Oregon. In his first season in 2007


2007 first season
2008 second season
2009 third season
2010 fourth season
2011 fifth season?

What am I doing wrong here? Did he sign a 3 year contract AFTER the 2007 season? That would still put this year as his last year.

Also, I thought I saw another article that quoted his last season of his contract as this year.

well he's oblivious in his play calling so maybe he's oblivious to his current hot seat..

I guess this means that Leach and Kragthorpe both said no.

Either that or Crowton has no idea that Les is looking/talking to other OC options.

We thought it wasn't possible to get worse last year, and we did get worse.


I'm a full blood Miles supporter but if he keeps Crowton around I will have to widthdraw my support and beg for changes.

doesn't mean anything. He's feeling out replacements. If he wanted him back, he wouldn't be doing anything.

ETA: I also like the title of the article, "crowton expects to stay" and not "crowton expected to stay"

interesting observation.

hope that's a legitimate/intentionally subtle suggestion, and not just a hopeful reading-into.
