Miles = our future, so buckle up for continuation of the ride

The Michigan threat is the only threat that anyone should rationally be concerned with, and that is about to be locked down for the entirety of Miles's career coaching college football.

As such, Miles is ours for as long as he has privately considered being a college football coach. Let's assume that this is through the next 3 seasons, just as a reasonable guess (although as many as 6 seasons are a possibility based on his age and vigor and life phase).

Now. Let that sink in. Are you with reality now?

Seriously, can you ride forward with that reality? I hope so.

It is going to be harder for some than others, but buckle in and accept that mindset.

With 10 years of experience for most of us with Miles, we know who he is, so it is just a matter of accepting the good and the not-so-good and to "get what we get and to not throw a fit".

If he changes and modifies in some areas that bother you, then just accept that and integrate it into your mindset and your reality.

If he does not, then accept it just like you do traits of family members or others that do things differently than you, and try your damn best to support the Tigers under his leadership.

Buckle Up folks. It's been a hulluva interesting ride and it will continue to be a helluva ride.

With some fortune and continued great recruiting, we should be able to nab another natty.
