Hold the Phone Folks, Les Miles Might Not Leave LSU After All.
Posted by Thomas the Terrible on December 1, 2007
And the drama continues… This morning complete corporate tool Kirk Herbstreit one of the members of ESPN’s boy band, College Game Day, reported that Michigan was going to name Les Miles head coach early next week. Funny how the “story” broke right LSU face Tennessee in SEC championship game.
Of course all the media was a buzz a good part of the day. Some were outraged at the timing of the announcement and some members of the liberal media were questioning how a deal could have come about so quickly.
We now ESPN is reporting that Les Miles isn’t leaving LSU and he has a new contract to sign with LSU. Story
” LSU coach Les Miles will remain the school’s football coach rather than consider a move to Michigan, athletic director Skip Bertman said Saturday.
“Coach Miles and the chancellor have already worked out a contract that they’re happy with, but it hasn’t been signed yet,” Bertman said.”
Whether this report is true is the question. What does Michigan have to say about this? If Miles doesn’t become the next coach for Michigan who will they go after? What become of the Old Ball Sack Coach God Spurrier? He was counting on that LSU job you know.
Stay tuned to find out more. Hopefully Joel can help me get a handle on this, since I’ll be away from the computer after 3:00 EST. today.
UPDATE 2:50 PM.
Les has spoken! Story
“I am the head coach at LSU. I will be the head coach at LSU,” Miles said Saturday. “I have no interest in talking to anybody else.”
“I’ve got a championship game to play, and I’m excited about the opportunity of my damn strong football team to play,” he said. “It’s unfortunate that I had to address my team with that information this morning.
“I represent me in this issue, please ask me after. I’m busy,” he said.
Bahahahah. I love it. Now let’s see if Miles pulls a Saban in upcoming days.
So I profess on this day 12/01/07

Well I was watching the Army-Navy football game and Miles apparently had an impromptu press conference, where he stated that he was the coach at LSU, he wouldn’t take any questions until after the game, and that because of the report, he had to address his team and tell them and blah blah blah blah blah. They actually played part audio, part audio of the 45 second press conference during the third quarter. Amazing…

I hate to say this, but I believe Herbstreit before Miles on this one…

I think he was going to go to Michigan, but changed his mind because he wanted to win a National Championship more than he wanted to coach at that school to the North. I think he was afraid his team would go flat and lose out if he announced, and once the media smoked him out, he had to reverse. Of course, what the hell do I know…
