LSU's Kragthorpe steps down

There was a major announcement from coach Les Miles following the morning workout. Steve Kragthorpe had been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and gave up his responsibility of offensive coordinator.
Kragthorpe, who informed Miles' about his situation three weeks ago, will remain LSU's quarterbacks coach. Miles wanted to reduce the work load on Kragthorpe.
Miles promoted offensive line coach Greg Studrawa to the coordinator's position. Studrawa, who was the offensive coordinator from 2003-06 at Bowling Green, will remain as the offensive line coach.
"Unfortunately, this is not what we wanted," said Miles at a press conference Thursday afternoon. "This well could have been a curve ball. But, it was not. We have done as best we could have done. We have quickly adjusted responsibilities. We are hoping for uninterrupted leadership."
