When did he start calling offensive plays against Vandy and how do y'all know that he took over the playcalling?

First noticed him carting the Denny's menu early in the 3rd quarter. Watching the replay he appeared to be conversing with Crowton more than normal when the Tigers had the ball.

Well, what happens now? He has obviously lost faith in Crowton's ability to be the expert playcaller, so is it possible that he assigns the duties to someone else or continues calling the plays? Crowton has got to be pissed.

Moscona just had the sound bytes from the presser

Said he always has that play chart and the manager by him holds onto it every game

I'm being serious. I would like to know if he did or did not. So far, there are pics with him and a chart from the 2ND QUARTER, people claiming he called the second HALF, and various in betweens. I saw a couple of shots when we were on offense in the 4th on replay, and he was not holding it.

He probably told Crowton to quit trying to throw the ball, we've got bigger/stronger/quicker lineman and we might as well just wear them down.

He didn't say that he called plays but rather that he had the playsheet, which he always has.

miles has been calling the plays even when jimbo was here thats' why he left. crowton has been taking the heat for him but thats why we run up the middle so much. crowton has never run what he wants to run and as long as miles is here he won't ever.

That's weird that the coaches want to know what's going on.

Not true. Miles had more input in the playcalling after the Florida game in 2006. Jimbo was already on his way out long before that.

Crowton should take heat. His offense is unbelievably ineffective. I wish he ran it up the middle out of an "i" formation more. What kind of an idiot continuously calls horizontal running plays on third and inches? Vanderbilt and UNC were completely inept at stopping our running game out of the information, yet the brain trust in the booth continues to try and run an option read offense without a running QB.

bullshite. What you've seen the last two years is Crowton's offense.
