Saban and Jimbo had how much influence?
Plenty.

Seems Saban bowed out meekly
by taking an NFL job?



I wish I could "bow out" with a career advancing promotion.

Jimbo's O sucks hind teat to '07 and '11 in scoring O.
Except we basically ran Jimbo's O in 2007.

I thought everyone knew that.

quote:

Asked if he's ever had as talented an offense at his disposal before, Crowton hesitated before replying, "Let's just say I'm happy with what I've got." LSU retained the same base offense it ran under Fisher, but Crowton, a spread-offense practitioner, has added his own influence, primarily the extensive use of the shotgun, in which Flynn seemed to flourish.

"Some guys are only comfortable in one or the other," said Crowton. "That's been the nice thing with Matt, he's comfortable in both -- under center or the shotgun -- which gives us versatility."

So Crowton/Flynn/Doucet/Byrd executed Fisher's offense better than Fisher/Russell/Bowe/Davis...

Saban bowed out meekly via 9-3.
Saban had les time with the '07 group, and Miles acheived much more mileage and success with them.

To which I had this disclaimer inserted:
"I do think Jimbo had a lot of influence in the '07 O."
Crowton put some wrinkles into Jimbo's O, some not so popular, like the banghead-SSO.

So now we move on to discrediting the 13-1 season vs one of the toughest SOS in recent memory.
The 13-1 season with a completely new OC, that passed the job to the OLC.

Let the Anti-Miles Spin begin.
