UPDATE: Our source article was DEAD WRONG
, effectively rendering this article moot. Freakin’ Brits. If you can’t trust em’ to get the breaking news on the NFL right, what the hell are they good for?

Ever-reliable source of NFL and College Footall News ThisIsLondon.co.uk is reporting that Georgia Tech head coach Chan Gailey will be introduced as the new coach of the Miami Dolphins on Friday. Should that turn out to be true, Bobby Bowden will likely poop his pants. More than he usually does in the course of a given day, we mean.

Oregon Ducks offensive coordinator Gary Crowton will replace Jimbo Fisher in the same capacity at LSU. This should dispel concerns by some (read: Jimmy Ott) that Les Miles seeks to run an old school, conservative, pound it up the middle style offense. It also makes us feel a little better about LSU’s commitment to keeping a top-tier coaching staff rather than going cheap and promoting some unknown assistant from within.
