    True. And now they are reporting on the LSU Network that both LSU and Michigan immediately called ESPN and told them they were wrong in the first reports about Miles to Michigan. ESPN refused to budge so LSU called the press conference.

    They should fire Desmond Howard for the misinformation. He sucks, anyway.

    Who cares, every LSU fan said he was leaving too. Should we be fired?

    Yeah, the ESPN "Did he ACTUALLY close the door on Michigan at his press conference?" crap has already started. The ESPN/ABC ticker reads "Miles hasn't signed new contract w/LSU yet."

    I'm very disappointed in ESPN. I'd like an apology from Herbie, who, as an Ohio State alum, may have privately sought to hurt Michigan's future with his report. LSU's just collateral damage here.

    no he shouldn't...he's a buckeye and would do anything to help OSU and this way, he just screwed Michigan as a way to help his alumni

    They are already saying that Miles changed his mind. I guess they have a source to confirm that too.

    ABC was saying that at halftime. Also said it was about money. Blamed LSU for giving permission for Miles to talk with Michigan. Of course, they left out the fact that it couldn't happen until after the game.

    They are in full spin mode to protect their own.

    Herbie's alleged source was in Hawaii today. Maybe they had a bad phone connection?
