Yeah, Miles is packing his stuff up as I type.  He may not even coach in their bowl game.

Now I may be an idiot, but there is one thing I am not, sir, and that, sir, is an idiot.

You know, all the talk may be 100% spot on about Miles.  He may be gone.  But to me, it looks like message board and Finebaum fodder that's done swolt into one of those things that if enough people say it.....

I'm always curious as to how people know these things.  If there are actually negotiations going on for a buyout, I imagine that's being done between him, his agent and some people in really high places at LSU. I would also imagine those people are not going to be leaking information of that nature to the Paul Finebaum's of the world. 

Like I said, he may be gone.  Who knows?  But $17 million?????  That would make our PTB look like good stewards of the University's $$$$$.  Well, maybe that's a stretch.  But buying a coach like Miles out for that kind of cash?  They done loss day damn minds if they do it.  The problem with Miles and his program is simple.  He's too damn stubborn to open it up and get away from the ground and pound.  He admitted as much in his presser after the OM game.  Part of that money would be far better spent hiring a proven OC that knows how to light up the scoreboard and develop a QB. Miles has long since proven he can get the talent in there.  They need to tell Miles to run the program but turn the O over to someone that can take it in a different direction.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

I tend to agree but it being on ESPN ticker kind of caught my attention. And it wasnt Thamel, Schad or Thayer.

Scott Rabalais wrote an article on Miles coaching for his job in the final two games of the regular season.  He's no common rumor-mongerer.  He's pretty much the go-to guy for all things LSU.

You can keep a wooden stake in your trunk
On the off-chance that the fairy tales ain't bunk
And Imma keep a bottle of that funk
To get motel parking lot, balcony crunk.

Unfortunately, a lot of outsiders would say the same about Nom Nom Marshall for Auburn.  Like I said, he may be gone but damn, that makes no sense, especially not at that kind of buyout.

LSU isnt exactly known for having an off the charts endowment either. Not a big enough of one, or enough spend happy boosters to blow 15 mill in one swing. UF? ND? Penn State? Sure. LSU? Thats a lot to absorb.

Miles' buyout is supposedly payable over 4 years.
