They most certainly will next year for the 20th anniversary of his championship season.

I don't know if he's making public appearances anymore.

I still won't forgive him for January 2012...he could have started the second half with Mettenberger at QB and played with 4 wideouts
Man, we could go through a long list of bad calls and terrible in game moves by Miles. Especially after 2007.

2012 ticks me off to this day. OBJ and Mettenberger, and we pissed it away.


2006 pisses me off much more than that. Jamarcus, Bowe, Buster, Early and a defense. And we lost to Auburn 7-3 because of his stubborn ignorance.

Miles had a great run (dinosaur offense aside), but he was an idiot to keep creeping on 18-19 year old girls that he was hiring as student workers/babysitters after LSU received complaints and told him to stop. Dude had the one girl entering her number under an alias into a personal phone number of his (which LSU said they didn't know existed) AFTER he had been ordered to stop. And Miles/LSU paid somewhere in the 2 - 2.5 million range on a settlement just to keep things quiet with one of the girls that complained (which you don't do unless there is significant smoke).

Then after his family had to go through this whole ordeal about this sexual harassment stuff coming out years later, he goes and sues LSU to get some vacated wins restored because just being eligible for the College Football HOF was apparently more important to him than his family avoiding having to hear about the harassment stuff again even though the wins were vacated due to the OLOL embezzlement crap by a dumbass POS booster.

I think the vacating the wins was a bunch of BS just to appease the NCAA, but Miles lawsuit claimed a "blot placed on his good name and reputation" in the lawsuit. Come on dude...you had multiple 18-19 year olds complaining about sexual harassment and you ignored your boss's/ LSU's demands to stop contacting them. That stuff put the blot on your good name.
