Les Miles is not going to leave LSU- there is no way he is gone. So, we need to move on from this discussion
I think Les heard the rumors that they were thinking they were gonna make a change. So he forced their hand so he could move on with his life one way or another. Smart dude.

This is the other angle in this story-Louisiana as a state is heavily in debt-I don't know the number off the top of my head. It doesn't matter who is buying him out-the optics of this don't look good if they did it. I suspect the politicians told the people who driving the bus on this no.

So we hire him next year?

Maybe, but I doubt the public sentiment was the deciding factor. More likely that they thought they had Jimbo locked up, until they didn't. If anything the leaks probably tipped off fsu to put the clamps on Jimbo.

Either way he altered their schedule.

And Kiszla this morning too. But nope. Just blowing made up smoke.
Way back in the autumn of 2010, when the dream of joining the Pac-12 was filled with so much promise, the Colorado AD at the time, Mike Bohn, sat me down at a tavern in LoDo and shared a vision of hiring Miles, who served as a CU assistant during the 1980s before going on to success as the head coach at Oklahoma State and LSU. Miles briefly flirted with the Buffs, but negotiations never got truly serious, and when Michigan also wooed him, he leveraged his popularity into a contract extension with the Tigers.

They said they decided to keep him in the 3rd quarter is what I heard. Some really strange **** with that situation.
They're just like a bunch of "Allbuffers" with money.
Either having it in the press for so long backfired and the money dried up because of the optics of the situation, or more likely Jimbo told them he wasn't coming and it was Jimbo or bust and the AD didn't have an effective backup plan.
Yeah you have to think they had someone in place and they got cold feet. Either way, it was handled like ****. I think he deserved better than that. If it was me, I would've told them to go **** themselves. I wouldn't wanna work for those jackoffs. If they did this once, they will probably do it again. Les needs to find a qb and tinker with his offense. Even Stanford uses some spread concepts, you can still be run oriented.
Everything turned out exactly how The Mad Hatter wanted it to. He orchestrated the entire thing, even the lost games. If he wanted to be undefeated, he would be. No one but him will ever know the reasoning because he lives on a different level than us. God-tier. Eat grass, it's obviously beneficial.
