You talking offense or defense? Because the offense was complete dogshit this year.


I'm not saying we had a great "O" that's for sure... but we had a 1st team All-SEC RB, he's 4th all time on LSU single season list, i believe - maybe just for TDs, not sure. We had an OL on the All-SEC list too, I think (Barksdale 2nd team, maybe?)

If all non-seniors return and the underclassmen play to potential we improve again....

I'm in the camp of Crowton has not done a good job and we could do better at OC. Miles has not played that hand yet, I don't think... he's supportive of Crowton to a point, but behind the scenes who knows... maybe like Peveto and Mallory he's "encouraging" Gary to get a job... IDK and not saying this is fact, just that it could be a possibility.

Better QB, WR and OL play will help a lot that's for sure.

for LSU to compete for championships, but LSU will never compete for championships with Crowton.


I would say 10 wins a year is "competing" for championships. Just look at the competition week in an week out anyone can beat anyone.

This team was a championship team minus a QB. It rests on Miles to get that QB, so what did the man do, he got the best QB available to come to LSU.

We haven't had good QB play in 3 years. Last I checked, Gary Crowton is the QB coach. So he is a total failure when calling an offense and he is a total failure when tutoring a QB?

I'll agree the he has not developed or QBs. I think his play calling reflects the fact that our QBs suck. If Miles decides to fire him then I can see why. Yet if Crowton is back next year I would have to think that our play calling and QB play will be better with ZM.

So far Miles has made all the right moves when he sees a problem with the team. I will trust his judgement with the Crowton/QB situation.

No credit for overcoming a less than mediocre offense and finishing with 10 wins in the SEC?


You are speaking to a wall. Idiots will be idiots. No amount of explaining why a Banana is a Banana will help people who think Bananas are oranges at this stage in their life.
