re: Fox Sports Crapping on Miles Again

What is the advantage of a coach signing a contract extension that everyone knows it is not worth the paper it is written on in terms of guaranteeing a long term commitment by the coach. Didn't Miles, Saban, and Petrino all have long term contracts prior to changing jobs. How was talking to Michigan helping to keep down the rhetoric and keeping the Tigers focused on the championship game? Miles no matter his explanation just fanned the flames.
