And I'm telling you what I've heard from people that know.

There was a legitimate offer made to Miles.

Miles declined.

You can research a link that wasn't important enough for you to remember, or you can choose to believe what I'm telling you.

But, I'm guessing one will halt your incessant LSU bear poking, so you'll probably not choose that one.


I posted the link before you posted. Try reading before you post. I beleive that people you know told you an offer was made and it was legitimate enough. I am also sayng I bet they were not in the room during Miles' meeting to see if the offer was legit enough for UM to think Miles woudl truly consider it.

Oh, I saw that you had typed 'link below', but there was no 'link below'. Try learning how to post links before you say that you're posting links. Guess I caught it within the two minutes it took for you to figure it out.

No, you have not figured it out. I am not going to post a link in an edited post. I put it below [in the thread] in a new post, before you responded.

Are you talking about this post:

Don't shoot the messenger. I am just asking for thoughts on one article I read.


I think he had a nice, long talk with Miles (it ended very amicably, I’m told), and probably offered 80% of what it would take to get Miles to come to Michigan.

If you want to get into a pissing match about posting times, then maybe you mean waiting 12 after I posted the link to state I had not posted a link. It's not like your post overlapped my posting of the link.

I remember arguing with you back in the day about BCS vs AP. You seem to have held on to all your douche bag qualities, congrats.

Did you guys use UPS or Fedex to send that crystal ball back? I bet you crammed it into a flat rate USPS bag. "If it fits it ships."

Look, I am no die hard Miles fan but these theories are ridiculous. If Michigan had their man (Hoke), why the hell have they wasted three weeks? SD St. finished their season on December 23rd, why would Michigan wait until now?

The simplest explanations are usually right. Michigan waited to come to Baton Rouge so they could gauge Miles' interest. They didn't waste all of this time and effort (or build their fanbases expectations) to put on a show. I am surprised Miles didn't accept and there is absolutely no chance Michigan wasted all of the time and effort to not offer him.

LSUTANGERINE, I'm not going to say anything about USC. They're actually a good program paying for a few mistakes. You, on the other hand, are much like dog flatulence.

Why is it retarded to financially secure the services of the most successful football coach in LSU history?



It's stupid to guarantee that much to a coach that hasn't won his division in 3 years. I'd be fine with Miles getting a 5 year contract at his current salary with it guaranteed, thus his original $18.75M buyout. That is actually still utterly ridiculous, but Skip Bertman fricked us over and we're going to pay for it.

To essentially guarantee him another $7.5 Million on top of that is utter pathetic.

This is based on belowpar's posts on the coaching board too.

Les could go 0-12 next year and he's still guaranteed basically $22.5 million dollars.
