Rumor was last year Miles wanted to get rid of Crowton and the administration wouldn't let him.

That rumor, like most others, was false.

Won't miss the short side option.


What if you don't miss it? It was widely rumored that Crowton was not calling plays at the Cotton Bowl (why would you allow the guy you're about to fire call plays, anyhow?). There was a short side option called in the first half that went for minimal yardage.

But, that is only speculation.

Here is fact:
There are only 2 possible outcomes:
1) Miles calls the short side option or likes the call of the short side option, OR
2) Miles did not tell Crowton, "I am the boss and you will remove that play from your gameplan and if you ever call it again you are fired." (or at least he waited until just prior to the Cotton Bowl to give this ultimatum despite loads of prior game film proving the short side option was not working).

Key phrase by Miles: "I don't know if I'm necessarily going to be the factor there as much as other great opportunities."

Les's implication seems to be that Crowton will either find another job or be fired.

I don't think that's reading TOO much into that statement.
