Integrity, you guys thought when Jai Eugene gave a verbal to Michigan but signed with LSU was OK.

That is why you can change your mind up until you actually sign the papers as a recruit. The whole recruiting process is set up to allow the recruits to change their minds. These are 17 and 18 year-olds who are making life altering decisions with high powered pitchmen putting lots of pressure on these inexperienced young men. It's not like a mature adult who has just signed a contract worth potentially 3.5 million a year and who has said he is staying at LSU.

The problem with Miles leaving now is not just that he had signed a contract, but that he has repeatedly said that he will be at LSU next year, including to the BOS committee. It will look very bad if he is seen as leading folks on when he really intended to go to Michigan all along if offered.

I don't think he is leaving, however. I think the Rubicon has been crossed on this one for now.
