Well, you have to give Maryland a lot of credit, unlike LSU and Oregon, we both kept Crowton around way too long......... I just wish you guys would have kept him ONE more year.......


We won a NC and set the LSU record for points scored in a season with him as OC his 1st year here so it's hard to say that we should have gotten rid of him. Hindsight always has perfect vision

We ran the same offense we run now except for a few plays and for some tweaks that Crowton would put in week to week.Second year he puts in more of his stuff and the fall off begins. That was his history everywhere he went because he was added to a staff. This time he is there with a new staff and put in his offense on day 1.

He's done that twice, both with smart, NFL QBs. Tim Rattay and Matt Flynn.

Other than that, he's pretty much blown.
