Gundy claimed that Miles consistently interfered with his playcalling, overrode his calls, and basically threw out his gameplans at times mid-game.

The fact remains that Miles offensive strategies didn't work. I am not using the Arky game as my prime example. I am talking about the past 4 years as a whole. In no way am I saying Miles has to be fired or something, but reality is that he continually attacks/blames the offense for the defensive woes which is completely ridiculous.

I honestly dont see how someone could look at a gary crowton offense throughout his entire career and compare it to LSU's offense now and arrive at any other conclusion. Just because crowton took credit for a failed playcall doesn't mean he's not having to tailor his selections to what Miles wants. Do you really expect him to say at a press conference, "well i wanted to run so and so and such and such point in the game but les wanted to go in a different direction." No coordinator who wants to keep his job would ever say that.

i wrote this a while back.i remember when fisher was calling the plays and it got conservative we blamed him. he slipped up and the word was miles was making the calls. fisher left and crowton became the oc .the plays last year were more open but this year the only time you see the wide open plays are when we are behind. once we get ahead or even we go back to the conservative play calling. i was told crowwton was known for his wide open plays so who's calling the conservative plays.it appears it's miles not the oc.
