If Derek Dooley is hired by Tennessee Crowton might return to La. Tech, where he had a good deal of success. They loved Crowton. I think they would want him back.

Thoughts?

This is a logical question. Perhaps I phrased it in too insensitive a manner for the Miles lovers.

How about this: Do you think Gary Crowton would return to Louisiana Tech if Derek Dooley goes to Tennessee?

There, is that better?

I'm afraid this is more wishful thinking than reality.

wishful thinking. Crowton's not going anywhere as HC. Who would hire the guy that had one of the worst off in the NCAA to run their program? Crowton's gotta show some improvement before he's

A) fired
B) de-moted
C) new OC gig somewhere else

You are more in the know than I on the Tech program. But I always thought that Tech people loved Crowton.

Crowton left LA Tech high and dry the day before NSD. They hate him.

Losing Dooley and having Crowton return would be a 1-2 punch to the Tech fanbase's proverbial groin. TALK about a way to demoralize us... Please God, don't let this happen!

What could be more demoralizing than BEING La. Tech?

How would this offend "Miles Lovers"?

If you were OC at LSU, would you leave and take a pay cut to go to LA tech?

Think before you post next time.

He didn't show any improvement from one year to the next at Oregon and he was hired at LSU. Just saying......

Simple question here is why would he leave this pay to go to Tech and prob get paid less??

What did Dooley make this year?

So, if he improves, then we'll fire him? Love the logic of the Rant.

Dooley is also the AD, so maybe Crowton would go and hire himself and then only answer to the AD which would be him!

Seriuosly, I think that's how they will get a good coach by supplementing his income with the AD job.

Cna you imagine Crowton running all the athletic dept and its teams affairs like he does our fire drill offense??

He can be the head coach and only one person can fire him, the AD. Right now he has two that can. Seriously though, he has to know the end is coming eventually. Leave if you can to save face and see if you can lead a team but hand over the offense to some new young up and comer and hopefully you look like a genius or at least show you aren't a has been. He will be in the wac. He could save his perceived reputation as of late.
