When Les Left OSU

Alamo Bowl: Five Questions
By Robert Allen
Date: Dec 30, 2004
Robert Allen explains what happened to the Cowboys in the 33-7 loss to Ohio State in Wednesday night's Alamo Bowl in San Antonio.
Where does the situation with Les Miles and LSU stand?
I spoke with Miles and with his wife Kathy. Both insisted that Les was not going anywhere. Miles said he is the head coach at Oklahoma State and will continue to be the head coach at Oklahoma State for a long time. He even joked when told of the stories that he was going to interview with LSU.
“If I were hiring, after that game (Alamo Bowl), I wouldn’t talk to me,” joked Miles.
The Cowboys head coach said he is not scheduled to talk to anyone at LSU and doesn’t plan on talking to anyone from LSU. He is committed to continuing to build the program at Oklahoma State.“We’ll be back next year going to a fourth bowl game,” said Kathy Miles. “I don’t plan on being anywhere other than Stillwater.”
Things could change, but Miles is not a liar. He’s played the media pretty good on this, and the attention doesn’t hurt him, in fact, it helps him. It could help in getting his most coveted facility for the program, an indoor practice facility. It could also help in recruiting as OSU is battling LSU for several key prospects including Houston Westside standout R.J. Jackson, Dallas Kimball defensive tackle DeMarcus Granger and Tyler Lee offensive lineman Ciron Black.

keep in mind that T Boone Pickens did not like Miles (Miles was resistant to Pickens influence on the program) and T Boone Pickens loved Gundy (a HC he knew he could control with his wallet) so once Pickens said it was ok to let Miles go to LSU, as far as OSU was concerned it was over with anyway.
Pickens donated $70mm in 2003 but he donated $165mm on December 30, 2005 but it was placed in a hedge fund that Pickens controlled through his BP Capital Management.

nope
by 12/30/04 he had one phone conversation with LSU to gauge his preliminary interest in the LSU job
so by 12/29/04 when the quotes were taken by the reporter, they had no reason to suspect they were going anywhere because he had not even met officially with LSU
do you write for the detroit free press?
