Funny how everyone points to small technicalities instead of talking about the real issues.



You're the one pointing out the technicalities.

TAF, Tiger Athletic Foundation, will be paying for the buyout. Press is already reporting that it's not a problem.

A decision on his future is likely to come in the very near future, with many Tiger Athletic Foundation (TAF) members ready to move on and start a new era in Baton Rouge. The $15 million-dollar buyout clause that is in Les Miles' contract is what many perceive as one of the bigger hang-ups in making a move.

However, TAF, the athletic program's booster club that funds a lot of the athletic programs for LSU, will not allow the buyout issue to thwart its plans, according to a high-ranking source.

TAF has been split for some time in its support for Miles, with many senior members disagreeing with the recent extension given to him two years ago. The group does not appear to be split anymore, with the vast majority of its members believing that it is time for a new coach.


LSU will not be contributing a dime to the coaching situation. It's all through TAF.
