re: Miles - Very matter of fact interview.

I liked the article. But I have to say that this quote bothers me and reminds me of the Alleva statement when they gave Coach Miles a raise. Alleva said something like getting close is what counts.

My answer is, "no you don't get rewarded for close". What's the old saying about horse shoes and hand grenades? Close doesn't count!

I agree with you, but in the current state of the program, good not great imo, if you want to be optimistic and take a positive spin on things, emphasizing being close is as far as you can stretch it bc in close/big games lately, we've been close, but we haven't won.
