Les Miles Buyout
Posted on 5/12/10 at 6:33 pm
Posted on 5/12/10 at 6:33 pm
My uncle and I were talking this past weekend and I asked if he had any good news on Les Miles and his job. He said that he talked to a friend of his who has family members that high up in the TAF and he said there is a bank account somewhere in Baton Rouge with the money to buyout his contract. I was wondering if anyone has heard anything like that lately.

Unfortunately it was all invested with Allen Stanford...

Well no shite there is a bank account with enough money to do it.
That doesn't mean it's going to happen anytime soon. Besides, if it were to happen - don't you think it woulda happened by now?
Nothing will be determined until after the season - unless we start of super-shitty.

I can personally vouch for this. The bank account is mine.

My best friend's second wife's hair dresser's third son's girlfriend's brother-in-law's barber's pool guy is holding the money in a mattress in a trailer in Walker.

I see the assholes are out in full force today. Can't wait for them to eat some Miles crow after this season.

It's all speculative and hearsay, but I heard some similar goings-on way back in december. If it was going to happen we'd have already heard. I think a lot of the talk started from the Ole Miss game and was hinging on the Arkansas game, but we ended up winning a thriller in OT so the talk subsided.
He definitely has one more season at least depending on what happens. Last season wasn't all that bad when you think about it...
Loss 1 - A 10 point loss to a Florida team with a top 5 D and arguably the best college player ever as their QB
Loss 2 - Future SEC and national Champion Bama...and we played them extremely well in their stadium with some questionable calls
Loss 3 - Ole Miss...this is about the only one you can blame Miles completely. The end of the game management was horrible..don't want to talk about this one
Loss 4 - To a good Penn State team that was fired up to play for Joe Pa, in SHITTY conditions with players slipping (our advantage is always our speed) dropped balls, etc.

I heard people are spreading rumors about Miles getting fired.

I'm laughing because you idiots need to know you don't just buy out a contract...you buy out a set of contracts...Position, TV, Radio, etc.
Miles gets 5-6 Million just for radio and TV rights over three years.
Your buyout total is around 10-15M right now but decreases every year of course.
Goodluck finding your mystery bank account.

No question the money is available for a buyout but doubt if it's in an account somewhere in one chunk. It's pretty common knowledge inside TAF, that the big-money alumns have told Joe that Les must win the West this year or they want him out. Joe's no fool. He'll listen to these guys if he wants that shopping mall built on the end of TS. The beauty of this is we don't have to wait long. UNC will be a great yardstick for measuring how far we've come and how far we still need to go to beat Bama and retake the West.
