Miles has no plans to defend his record at LSU
He has never posted a sub-.500 record, let alone a season with less than eight wins. He initially chose LSU over Tennessee, Stanford, Texas A&M, Alabama and others. I’m going to do my job, I’m going to look at this opponent I’m going to attack this opponent. It’s a big business – and like any big business, sometimes change is necessary.

He announced his decommitment from LSU on Monday night via Twitter. Again, only in SEC country is an eight-win season mediocre. However, NOLA.com has reported that Miles’ buyout “will have no bearing” on the decision to retain or fire him.
