re: Miles has leverage for a raise

Kind of makes you hope that the present AD would be a little bit like Bob Broadhead. I heard Broadhead tell a story (on his radio program in BR back in the early 1990s) how Dale Brown was trying unsuccessfully to get a raise from him at one point. Apparently Dale had been in communication with Oral Roberts University about the coaching job up there, and when he came into Broadhead's office it seems he had an offer that had been sent to him from ORU in his coat pocket. After ranting for several minutes about all he had done at LSU, Brown dramatically reached into his pocket to produce the document and try to back Broadhead into a corner. Broadhead was aware that Dale had been in contact with ORU, and when Daddy D reached into his pocket, Broadhead bluntly told him "If you take it out, go ahead and sign it". At that point Brown decided not to pursue the matter any longer and left Broadhead's office.
