Les is making plenty of money. If he demands more, or more years in his contract, LSU should refuse.

No. Les going to Michigan is a win for everyone involved.

No he should be paying LSU for keeping Gary Crowton around so long.


You don't get 3.75 M to keep your pals around while the offense stinks up the stadium for 3 years

NO! I like Les, but if he wants to go to Michigan, then geaux! But if he stays, he honors his current contract.

Miles is one of the highest paid coaches in football. That won't be a factor other than if he's inclined to go to Michigan and their offer is significantly less than his current money.

The word out there is that Michigan is going to pay as much as 5 mill per year if they can get the man they want.

His contract will get another year roll over and raises for his assistants.
May throw in another higher performance type of bonus eg. win the SEC, BCSNC, etc

We already pay him enough.

He would want a contract extension if anything. He doesn't deserve a raise.

I want him to stay, but if it's a matter of money, no.

I couldn't blame him if Michigan pays him 5M per year.

I'd wish him well, but I think he's being paid plenty at LSU.

Are you serious? This is a gift, gets us out from this ridiculous contract and on to another coach....simple

If he stays fine, but not at any additional money to LSU and the paying fans.....paying fans

I'm just saying that I don't think that will be the deciding factor, unless for some reason Michigan doesn't offer ballpark or better money.

This is a decision of his current situation vs. his alma mater, which is in relative shambles. I thought he was gone in '07, but what I do I know?
