Bama sells titles and domination. LSU sells putting you in the pros in 3 years. see the difference?
I see a difference but I have no idea how that would actually work in practice. If a kid has the kind of ability that can get him to the NFL, he's also the type who likes winning. And, flipped. A kid who thinks he's good enough to help a team win titles and is interested in the NFL hardly looks at Bama and thinks, "I can't do it there, I'll go to LSU where they're talking up the 3 year deal".
This makes no sense to me in actual practice as being a very effective tool. Now hey. I've got my issues with Miles. But, this one I just aint buying because I have no idea how on earth it would really even work.
I can't think of any potential NFL kid would be obtuse enough to think, "I need to go to LSU because I can go to the NFL faster".

your assumption here is pretty wrong
great talent doesn't always care about winning. this isn't pointed at any specific player, LSU or otherwise, but sports history is littered with examples of guys who work to improve themselves and their play and could give a shite about "team"
