Of course they are trying to justify the choice and don't get it. It's Colorado and it's in the Denver Post, and they aren't competing in the SEC week in and week out, and when do you really hear much out of UC? Really? Expectations are always quite minimul. That's why they are Colorado.

Miles is not taking a pay cut to go to Boulder


I would if I were him. Miles is never going to be loved in Baton Rouge. Right or wrong, that is reality. Additionally, Boulder is a nice place to raise a family (beautiful surroundings, lots of good schools, exceptionally clean, very little poverty, etc)

Bat shite crazy too, but yeah, it's hard to ignore the quality of life and beauty that comes with living in most parts of Colorado.

Seriously? The SEC is a cutthroat league where the overpaid coaches are constantly lying and stabbing each other in the back for recruits and the "fans" are ready to lynch the coaches after losses etc. It's a sleazy money-driven conference....fun to watch though.



to be fair it's probably not as dirty as big ten basketball - at least not unless KY asks Calipari to coach football as well

If you're not from Louisiana, I think you'd be crazy not to go to Boulder for a couple of million a year.

Boulder > Baton Rouge

I AM from Louisiana and FWIW I would take Boulder and many towns in CO over any place in Louisiana.

Hope Les gets offered and takes the job. UC needs a "Big 10" style coach and LSU needs an SEC caliber coach who runs a program with discipline and order...

God, please make it happen !!!
You're not very smart. So STFU.

Miles had 3.75 million reasons to stay in Baton Rouge and if it get to the point that people really hate him it will take 15million to get rid of him. Last I checked that kind of cash allows him to put his kids in the best schools in BR and nice surroundings in Bocage.

Come on people think about it. Would you uproot your entire family and move half way across the country to take half the pay.

Plus if Les needs a jacket on in 80 degree south Louisiana weather can you imigane the parka he would have to sport on the sideline in Colorado.
