No raise if warranted

You can say that as much as you want, but if Mich. makes a run at Miles LSU will, without question, attempt to keep him. You can think it's not deserved or warranted all you want, but not to do so in todays college football coaching landscape would be both naïve and dumb.

As to working the system, Nick and Sumlin worked it last yr. Jones has already worked it this yr. More than likely, Mullen will work it soon. Maybe Freeze too.

Look at what has gone on with the Neb. and Flor. hires. I mean, those two guys might turned out to be great, but they haven't done shite in big time college football and the Flor. guy is gonna get 800,000 less than Miles who has proven twice he can take his team to NCG???

Like Alleva or not, but he would be pretty freaking college football coach mentally challenged to lose a coach with the Miles results history with never offering some kinda bump to Miles.
