Doubt it. Crowton gets thrown under the bus, thus giving Miles another year.

Hope so

can we make sure the bus goes back and forth over him about 17 times.

I still don't understand how Miles could give Crowton another chance. That is when I gave up on the man.

I would like to think yes, but LSU's history demonstrates a consistent pattern of letting coaches who are obviously and clearly headed for failure stay on until the failure is complete and the program is in shambles. No foresight is allowed at LSU. And, to be fair, most schools exhibit this same stupidity. They treat coaching firings as a moral issue, and won't fire an incompetent until they absolutely have to. That's why so many schools that should be winning consistently go through down periods, when if they had any sense, they'd realize that things were headed downward and get rid of the guy before they hit rock bottom. It's life in college football, I guess. There are a few elite programs that don't wait until the whole pile of shite is sitting on top of them to make a move. That's why you have the Ohio States, Floridas, Alabamas and Michigans of the world and the LSUs, Auburns and Texas A&Ms of the world. Programs that could be elite if they had the right mentality, but simply don't want to be.

of course you can never know for sure, but if he goes 7-5 I think LSU will give him another year on the basis that he must get rid of Crowton
6-6 or worse and I say he's gone, hands down

You win Bowl games after a national championship year, you get extra chances to right the ship. That is the case at EVERY school. Hell, Ohio State has put little pressure on Tressell even when he has underachieved, so your examples don't really make sense.
Our AD put our coach on the hot seat (if you read his letter and didn't see it as a warning for Miles you weren't paying attention) after his first bowl loss, and only a couple of years after a NC. You are being over pessimistic if you don't see that as the "right mentality" from the top.
No one fires a coach two years after a NC with a 1-1 bowl record since then and a program with no major PR problems.
Edit: And Michigan as an example? Are you kidding? After they coasted with Carr for years and have put hardly enough pressure on RR?

It'll be interesting. This recruiting class might save him but if he goes 7-5 then (IMO) it doesn't matter who he has, it won't matter.
Posted on 7/18/10 at 4:02 pm to redsox75
I think so. yes!
Posted on 7/18/10 at 4:06 pm to redsox75
Hell Yeah
Posted on 7/18/10 at 4:06 pm to redsox75
LSU goes 10-3 or better this year.
BOOK IT. Okay, just kidding. But I don't see 7-5. I say 9-4 to 11-2. Miles will leave on his own accord and not a moment before. Maybe when Rich Rod gets fired he'll choose to go to Michigan. I have a few friends who went to Ann Arbor and they think we're crazy for wanting to dump him.

He better be.
**disclaimer**- I am not hoping for it to happen but 7-5 would definitely be grounds for termination in my book and I would be extremely disappointed if it didn't happen.

It all just depends....

it has to be looked at very hard by alleva. 4 mill a year, he has to produce better #s than that.
