Crowton thoughts

I know Gary Crowton from his days as the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs head football coach. Crowton is a personable guy. He is a guy you enjoying talking to and a great offensive mind as well.

But I am a little curious as to see how he will do at LSU as offensive coordinator.

At Tech, Crowton was great at taking lesser talented teams and rolling up big yardage against more talented teams.

The question now is he'll have more talent than his opponents on a lot of occasions. How will he do in that situation?

He's a good quarterbacks coach and all you have to do is look at Tim Rattay to see that. So I think he can bring along Matt Flynn, Ryan Perrilloux or Jarrett Lee depending on whom the quarterback is.

Still, the LSU offensive coordinator is under the microscope - just ask Jimbo Fisher. So it will be interesting to see how Crowton handles that aspect as well.
