team that he will be back as their Coach next year and then go back on his word? I do not see Miles as someone who could be so "Saban-like".

He didn't want to ruin the celebration. It's understandable.

FWIW, he did leave OSU for LSU in that fashion, didn't he?

because he never thought they would offer 5 Million and 5 years...

He got recruited to a place he loves that has a challenging situation...

His rep is on the line, might as well get paid!!

I don't know if he did that at OSU, but I have to take him at his word. If he said that to the players, I think he stays. Or at least I hope.

Was it ever confirmed he did say he'd be back next year? I know there was a lot of speculation as to whether he said that or not.

For 25 million, I would lie to however I wanted.

"He said, 'They have rumors going around about (me) going to Michigan, but it's not true,'" Jefferson said. "'It's nonsense.' He said hasn't spoken to anybody, anything about Michigan. We're going to stick with that and get ready for next year."

"I'm not worried. Les Miles loves this team. He loves all the work that we do for him. He loves working with us. I feel he's not going anywhere. I'm positive he's not going anywhere."

Is it possible the 18 yr old kids misunderstood Les (not too far fetched from either perspective, right)?

He is no Saban in this situation, and any attempt to portray him as such is misguided, off the mark, and plain silly.

These are kids that are excited over having just won a big bowl game in convincing fashion. I'm sure Les may have said something to them that may have SOUNDED like what they wanted to hear.

did he actually say he's coming back or did he say that he hasn't talked to anyone at UM? that's two different things.

you are not quoting him accurately.

he has not said, I WILL NOT GO.

he has not said, I swear to you, I will not go.

Nothing of the sort. What he has said is, my family likes it here and I do too.

If he goes, you do not have permission to say he lied.
He did not say what your post says.
EVER.
