If you decline to tell your side of the story then you have no one to blame but yourself. Shame on Miles or whoever if that's truly what happened.
It's a classic "How long have you been beating your wife?" siutation: it's a loaded premise that paints Miles as the bad guy no matter what he says, the template and the story were predetermined. A lack of comment from Miles doesn't grant ESPN the right to provide incomplete, misleading, one-sided information. A statement by Les only grants legitimacy to a non-controversy created entirely by ESPN. Public figures have better things to do than make on-the-record responses to every inflammatory, insubstantial accusation or innuendo hurled at them, including "respected" media outlets.
Does anybody really expect Miles to go public and blast a kid. Hell, look how much he pretected RP. Look how much he didn't say about the duel disaster DCs. It's not his style, he's a class act not a wanna-be-journalist.
Exactly, no matter what CLM says in that interview, ESPN would have edited and skewed it to fit their story. Miles did the right thing by not granting them an interview. Garrett was a fat, lazy, entitlement minded piece of crap that thinks he deserved his scholly. He got exactly what he deserved, his scholly was yanked. Good luck with that piece of crap Houston Nutt!
What bothers me is the quality of LSU QB recruits ever got to the level of Garrett, Jefferson and Lee...............at the end of the day, none of them have been what everyone thought they would be.
Bullcrap. It's a no win situation. The best thing to do is let it blow over and geaux away. Take the high road. Those with enough concern about it, if they have any sense about them, can look at the fact that this arsehat Garrett couldn't even break in the mix at NW, and is walking on at OM...where he ALSO won't earn a scholly. Miles mistake in this IS recruiting too well...except at QB, namely Garrett.
