The aubbie fans are all saying he is a much better QB coach than a WR coach. FWIW. But all say he is a great recruiter.

I agree with all this. He's probably one of the top 5 recruiters in the country.

For Craig to make a lateral move by title, away from his alma mater, he must have ben given some kind of passing game coordinator role or qb development role as well as wr coach.


He's definitely not coming here just to coach WRs. I am almost certain he'll get something like a passing game coordinator title and work with the QBs and the passing game. I mean he lured 5 star Winston to FSU from Alabama and coached both Ponder (senior year) and Manuel (junior and senior year) into QBs that went in the 1st round.

Exactly, I hope he gets some real input on our offense this season.

I can agree with this, though we know Jimbo's an awesome recruiter…

The most you can give Craig here is an "assist". Jimbo is brilliant at developing QB's. Look no further than the consecutive years of developing Josh Booty…

Well hopefully him being a former QB and working under Jimbo he picked up a few things.

Seems clear Craig should be QB coach. Cam could take over WR, he coached them at Michegan.

This is quite impressive the staff we're putting together. Can't wait to see what results we can get.

First off LSU site states he is WR coach. Secondly to expect Cam to not play an active role in coaching the QBs is ludacrous. His job is on the line.

Plus if u watched the bowl game you saw his effort to connect and control Harris.

With our struggles at QB. We need them both to be active in developing Harris Scott and Etling and McMillan

Miles has made some absolutely incredible hires since the season ended. He's not messing around.

This off season has been incredible. These last 2.5 months are almost impossible to believe after November, but it has happened!

I get the great recruiting potential, but an i the only one concerned about his ability to coach the details and nuances of playing WR since he was a QB?
