Stud is a terrible coach. It is no secret. The NFL knows it. He has no business on this coaching staff whatsoever. I hope Cam Cameron can talk Les Miles into parting with him.
Crowton was a God-awful OC and QB coach. History has confirmed that, and Les kept him around at least a year longer than he should have. Les doesn't get rid of assistants until the problem with them becomes so obvious that it can no longer be overlooked. Loyalty is a wonderful character trait on a personal level, but in a big business with a lot of money on the line, it can often be a liability.
Im in agreeement with the criticisms of Stud. I dont think he is has done a good job at all. But this is far more than just a reflection of coach Stud. The entire team has not shown any focus or development. As the HC its on Miles to bring in the right coaches. Its also up to Miles to make sure the team has focus on the task at hand. As usual most here want to pass the buck to assistant coaches but never put any emphasis on Miles as the HC.
I'm willing to emphasize Miles' shortcomings, if you are willing to emphasize his 800% winning record at LSU, which puts him in the top 10 for the country.
Im willing to emphasize his success here at LSU. Ive said many times that its difficult to criticize him when you look at his success. However based on what we have seen the last two seasons I beleive there is a lot to criticize. This season was a horrible year of coaching by the entire staff outside of Cam. We didnt see much improvement from the start to the end of the season in any group on the field.
