re: What turned Les off to Michigan?

This is all very crazy. No one wants to take things at face value. For all of the scuttlebutt about Miles' imminent departure, there was an equal amount saying that he was gonna stay. O'Keefe, who sometimes seems like a dullard, has stated publicly that Miles told him that he did not want to leave LSU and Miles has many good reasons to stay. O'Keefe and others have stated publicly on multiple occasions that they were gonna do everything they could to keep Miles. Now we learn that on Friday a tentative agreement was reached. Miles was probably leaning toward staying till ESPN forced his hand. That is what happened and in the end it was best for everyone. Miles will be the LSU coach next year (as he has publicly stated).
