This question is for the Arky fans saying Long was just trolling.

Didn't Miles say $$ wasn't discussed?

He never offered 5 million dollars. The job was never offered to Les Miles. How many times does Sports By Brooks have to be wrong before people stop giving him credibility?

I doubt any offer was made. I'll goes as far to say the said meeting was a informal chat when miles was in Fayetteville, most likely on the field. The whole thing was cooked up by his agent.This shite happens every year. Move on!

Jeff Long went after the best coach he could. Miles turned him down. Now time to turn to candidates 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.

From what I've found out today, Long didn't troll LSU as much as Miles and his agent played the Arky opening off as an oppurtunity for him with Aleva (spelling?). LSU got played for a raise by their coach.

Because the AD that hire Bobby Petrino's mistress, then fired the best coach the school has ever had, and then replace him with John L. Smith knows what he is doing.

No matter what happens from here, we know that Arkansas had Miles as their first choice.

The talk all along about the Arkansas coaching search was that they had their man. Either that has come and gone and they are now working their way down their list after being rejected...OR...they really were starting from square 1 in the last week or so and are moving down the list.

Either way, my guess is that Arkansas fans are very worried about where this is going to end.

Cause it would mean that Miles would have to live in Arkansas?
