Ok, my speculation is as valid as anyone else's, but if Les goes on to the conference in Dallas without calling a team meeting or press conference to say he has declined the Michigan offer, then I would consider this a strong indication that he is either still considering the Michigan offer, he has accepted the Michigan offer or he's playing LSU like a violin.

So if I'm reading this right, you're saying that him not calling a team meeting or addressing the fans could mean almost anything?

I think you can also look at it the opposite way. If he knew he was leaving or that it would be announced today he would have met with the team to let them know first.

He's not going to get everyone back. I'm sure a lot of people went back to their homes for the break. Doubt he sent a mass txt/email saying "Hey guys..It's Les. Team meeting today."

With all that has been speculated and so called reported. What is the purpose of nothing being said of the meeting in the form of Les not accepting or considering taking the Michigan position. There is no reason for Brandon to fly back up there and not say les miles declined the offer and you now hear and read where is is going fly somewhere else. Brandon has no reason to be quiet about it if Less turned him down. Why would he still keep quiet for Less to only use them for contract betterment here at LSU.

My guess is as good as anyone else's (not very), but I will speculate that Miles is simply waiting for LSU and his agent to hammer out a new contract to match what Michigan has offered before he makes the call.

He has a want to call a team meeting because of his want to tell the team what he is doing. Then he can satisfy his want to call a press conference to explain what he wants to do.

He addressed the media yesterday afternoon, met with Michigan last night and left this morning. I don't understand why you think we are entitled to constant updates from him.
