re: Pretty cool story on Nick Saban, Les Miles, and Patrick Peterson.

He (Jimbo Fisher) had to figure out how to run a successful offense while the head coach wanted to run up against 11 man fronts with FB Dives on 3rd and 5

2005 - Total O ranked #34, 1200 more passing yards than rushing
2006 - Total O ranked #14, 1300 more passing yards than rushing
==============================
Crowton
2007 - Total O ranked #9, 1300 more passing yards than rushing
2008-2010 RP is lost and Crowton's inability at QB development becomes evident. After a year of freshman Jarrett 'pic 6' Lee, Jordan 'zero pocket presence' Jefferson takes over and Les sets 'parameters' for play calling.
2011 Krag is hired as OC, before season started, revealed he had Parkinson's, OL coach Stud takes over for 2011/2012.


In hindsight perhaps Crowton should have been given 'opportunity for other avenues' a year earlier. Perhaps another OC should have been sought for Krag/Stud...though 2011 was highly successful.

We have a real OC now, there is zero reason to think Miles will not let Cam run it.

My 2cents worth.
