In a move that is as surprising to me as anything that I have seen lately, a big time college football program has hired former Louisville football coach Steve Kragthorpe. He was not hired on as the head coach, Les Miles still occupies that position, but as the offensive coordinator at LSU. His offense was so potent at UofL that he was irresistible to LSU.
Les Miles does things to make everybody scratch their head from time to time. Whether it is him not knowing how many players he has on the field or him not knowing how much time is left on the clock, Miles has brain freeze quite often. In think he has really out-done himself with this hire.
Krags was 29-22 at Tulsa and 15-21 at The Ville. He has a record of...carry the two...44-43 as a head coach. Not bad, but not good either. He does have NFL experience but the catastrophe at Louisville should have made this guy radioactive as any type of coach for a program like LSU. But I wish him well and I hope LSU plays Louisville at some point and LSU scores 1,000 points. Actually the Tigers will probably score that much against UK next season.
Kragthorpe joins fellow tarnished Cardinal coach Ron Cooper on the staff.
