tl, n-dr (tooo literate, negs-don't read.)

Stanley Jacobs, a member of the LSU Board of Supervisors and former president of the Tiger Athletic Foundation, the team's primary booster organization, told NOLA.com that he expects Miles' salary to approach $4.2 million after negotiations are complete.

Jacobs said the University of Michigan offered Miles $4.2 million and $4.5 million, and Miles declined it both times and took the rollover contract from LSU.

But this period was also a time when the LSU football program brought in $69 million in revenues between 2009 and 2010 alone, according to a Wall Street Journal report. So not only has the athletic program been able to afford Miles' salary, it has also brought in critical revenue that has been shared with the rest of LSU.

I've heard the same from a few people very close to the situation.

He's also the most followed football coach on twitter, like a pimp.
