Meaning LSU really shouldn't throw money at Miles over this


My feeling is (as bad as I'd like to keep him) that LSU shouldn't give in to any salary or rollover demands. If his agent IS using all this stuff to leverage more money out of LSU, then you're calling his bluff. If it turns out to be legit, we don't need to be getting into a bidding war w/ the man's alma mater.

We need to keep Miles' salary at market level. He commands one of the highest salaries in the country and should get it.

If we call his bluff, he may take the offer from UM. He has every right to find out what the market value is for his services and then ask LSU to match it. LSU probably doesn't have to match it, but should give him a good faith raise to let him know that he is wanted and appreciated. Otherwise, if I'm Miles, I take the offer from UM.

Amen! When he's offered big bucks by major programs other than Michigan, such Florida, Texas, Penn State, etc., then I might consider throwing money at him.
