Crowton has sucked with any QBs he's had to develop, experienced or not. This is a fact. It's not just their youth and inexperience. It's the fact that Crowton can't coach QBs at all, so another year under Crowton won't do shite.

He needs to go, period.

This is not the same thing as using two trick plays on the last drive of one game.

They knew OKLA was bigger, faster, stronger and they schemed to use that against them. LSU didnt scheme anything this year. Same ild, same old. Need someone who can adapt on the fly, or run a different scheme with the athletes that we have recruited

Congratulations on pointing out the 2 seniors. I noticed you didn't point out the other three players, including 2 first-year starters, and a new starter at FB...

After that..

1. We do not have Dexter McCluster on our team
2. The last thing we need to do is overcomplicate the offense for Jefferson.
3. If you've ever watched Shep throw, you'd know that he doesn't have great accuracy.

Chilge you are a dumbass! This does not have to be ALL that the offense is based on!
We have 6"3" plus taller receivers! Are you kidding me???
ANd Misdirrection is not a gimmick play, turn on the tv and watch any game that is on you television and you'll see every team that is successful using playaction and misdirrection!
It's called motioning to get match ups that best suite your players! Sounds simple because it is! Crowton needs to go!!!

Jefferson would be better off changing positions because he can't read defenses and pick out alternate receivers.

You know chilge, my point also supports your hang up with inexperienced O line. Misdirection and play action plays freeze defenses, thus slowing them down so the o line can complete their assignments!?
ANd I'mm sorry for callin you a dumbass,,,

Firing Crowton sets the offense back... it's a stupid decision if it comes to fruition.


I really don't think the offense could be set back any further than it already is.
As for the misdirection argument, I think we really should use it a couple times a game, but not make it the base of our offense. We had way to much talent this year to finish 108th or wherever we ended up in offense.

That's fine. But the chances of a team being successful with utilizing mostly misdirection and playaction relative to those that run the ball up the middle are not great.

This is all I'm saying chilge!
I'm not trying to make Shep the starting QB or say that we make misdirection the bases of our offensive play calling, but just to put a guy in motion every once in a while and give the Defense something to think about!?

Compare what you said to RobbBobb and you'll discover why I'm posting in this thread at all.

One more thing Chilge, do you understand that a team can run a misdirection play and run the ball up the middle of the field at the same time?
