    Of course they love him, they can get away with all kinds of shit. They fuck off during class. I think there's a video of one of his starting running backs acting a fool in class. Jordan Jefferson and Jeremy Hill should have never saw the field at LSU again, and he rewards both of them with a easy TD the first play back from suspension. A player does something stupid in game, they get a pat on the ass on the way off the field. How many drug test did honey badger fail before Miles gave him the boot? They love him because they can walk over him.

    I'd love him 2 if I was getting paid. OK State would be on the death penalty right now. What saved them is that the people paying had absolutely no affiliation with the school. But they got paid.

    The Oklahoma State AD refused to let Miles speak with his team after he accepted the LSU job.

    Now you are questioning Miles integrity?

    The NCAA couldn't prove that the people paying had any ties to OSU. It was all over the media here. Espn is great but when it comes to local news, local media knows more.

    Why would I need to go to youtube. I live in Oklahoma City it was the main argument between my coworkers who are OU and Osu fans. OU fans couldn't understand that after they lost scholarships for the same exact type of incident why wasn't OSU punished

    He was destroyed because it couldn't be traced back. Playing players always happens. The way OU was caught is because Rhett Bomar filed his money on his taxes. Don't be so naive.

    I was not but I do know people that were. Friends of mine. Played for him.

    So let me get this straight, the clock hits 0's and the AD shuffles him out of the Alamo dome right away? Is that your story? Cause it sounds good but it's wrong.

    Now did Miles ask to address the team a couple days later and was told no, yes that happened. I'm talking about immediately following the game. He bolted. No nice job guys, no I'm taking another job just gone. That is fact 100%

    It was a total hatchet job by a hack reporter. Evans is an idiot and should have been fired for that piece. Hell some of the players he got information from were not even enrolled during the time they made the allegations.

    And I once met one of his former players in the summer of '06, and he loved Miles. He was mad that Miles left, but he was mad at LSU for "stealing" him.

    I understand that you hate Miles, but is there any reason to attack his character when he has proven over 10 seasons to be a family man who seems to really love his players at LSU?

    Not attacking him, just pointing out something that the sunshine club maybe didn't know about your great leader.

    My opinion is he didn't say anything to the team because he wanted them to be at ease and play their best. I understand that and don't hold it against him. Same way I think with 100% of my fiber that he was gone to UM before the SEC CG but made the "have a great day" speech instead.

    Has he proven to be a pretty good dude over the course, he'll yeah he has. Just saying he has some skeletons is all.

    We all do

    And yes, I have hung out at tailgates with quite a few of his players and they all love him. Only 1 hates him for the way he left and I am pretty sure it's because he loved him the most.
