Since we've all been posting on message boards, how many time have there been this much smoke and nothing has happened? Not many.

Whenever there are that many reports out about this guy, there HAS to be something going on. With Miles saying Crowton was staying, I don't know what it takes for you guys to realize that NOTHING he says to the media is usually true or makes sense. Ever.

Where there's smoke, there's fire holds absolutely true in the message board world, IMO.

It's just coming from far too many angles for me to believe there isn't something in the works.

It may not be on the timetable we'd like... but for it to be spanning multiple sites and now multiple different teams sites...

Exactly. I don't want that bastard either. Maybe he has a "want."

-Kragthorpe resurrected a dormant Tulsa program
-He lead Drew Bledsoe to the best year of his career
-He improved the Texas A&M offense every year under his tenure and was apart of their conference championship in 1999

I think that has more to do with the notion that he is an offensive guru.

Because of his record at Louisiville, you guys dont want him.

Because he's not a successful head coach, doesn't mean he's not an unsuccesful coordinator.

Does this mean that Crennel or Weis heads back to coordinator jobs and will be terrible? Try to look beyond a few things.

Look up Kragthorpe's offenses in Tulsa. He's not bad at all.

I've been trying to tell people this, but all they want to talk about is fricking Louisville.

Honestly, Steve Logan would be my top choice.

But Kragthorpe would not be a bad hire, especially considering his track record with QB development.

i think you ask too much of the rant.

again, do you expect people to actually research before giving their "informed" opinion?

You are absolutely correct. I think he would be fine here, but I think his work with our quarterbacks would help a whole hell of a lot.

credible angles on this seem to have backed down or back tracked completely on their initial reports, so I disagree. Then all your left w/ is random posters on message boards which is pretty much worthless.

I did a good bit of research and am not impressed. His Tulsa team got a lot better after he left

Jesus this is turning into quite the soap opera.

Kragthorpe would be fine by me, but I'm still holding on to the chance that Logan comes.

It just better be somebody.
