re: Miles extension

The problem was not the extensions or the raise, Alleva never adjusted the buyout. Miles was on the hotseat in 2010, no one saw the 2011 season occuring. The debacle in the NCG should have given Alleva enough leverage to give the raise, but make the buyout favorable to LSU.

The flirtation with Ark was bull. Alleva should have definitely adjusted it there. Two opportunities to make the contract more favorable to LSU. Miles has always had issues so no reason not to look protect LSU.

This is why Alleva should go, and Skip really dropped the ball as well. Alleva has never tried to protect LSU. Never had an issue costing money instead of saving it. That is what bit him on the arse.
