What about the Arkansas airport thing in '08?
What I take from this:

- Miles didn't recognize that he could have two plays in nine seconds.
- Miles didn't recognize that there were almost 30 seconds that went by where his field goal unit could get on the field, which by his own admission takes 12 seconds.
- Miles didn't want a spike but was overruled, when he is the head coach.
- Miles' staff thought it best to spike the ball in hopes of getting a defensive penalty with :01.
- Miles lost track of time and didn't call a timeout until :09 were left.
- Miles said he'd correct the above, but HE'S PAID $3.75 MILLION AND SHOULD ALREADY KNOW THE ABOVE!

:banghead:

Admits Jefferson not coached right by not throwing ball away
After the nine seconds left, only called one play because it wouldn't be enough time for two plays.
"Stunned that clocking it was signaled and I was not for it..."

WHO'S THE HEAD COACH??????????????????????????????????
First question - 12 seconds to get FG unit on...at least 26 seconds available - whose responsible to get FG unit on?

Respoonse: "If we had 30 seconds bewteen the throw and the play, I'd be very surprised."

VIDEO SHOWS THIS!
Youtube video reference..."it was down, it was down" not "clock it, clock it"...

"I knew at that point that it was not the answer" (clocking it)

"It's my fault, my responsibility, it will be fixed."

"Every want to win that game"...

Didn't foresee another play - likelihood to get play off successfully with one second left was not good - potential for 12th man on defense and thought was to snap it without play - came from press box (aka Crowton) but Les reviewed it and there was no 12th man on field...

Miles "lost opportunity for team to win by squandering seconds"
12 seconds to get FG personnel on field - it was 27 seconds that the ball was downed until the clock started - WTF?
He let the clock get away from him - admits he didn't call timeout
He told the onside team to get the ball because they needed it to win. Thanks?

He wants to do better at 1st and 10 at the 32 - WTF? It's the 11th GAME OF THE YEAR!

He's always late :lol:

Does he ever watch a clock?
Yuck. If we go to the Independence Bowl, that's a pretty big circle getting closed. Hello 1997.
