It’s hard to believe we’re here, but here we are.
Multiple outlets began reporting over the weekend and then into Monday that rumors were boiling to the surface regarding one Les Miles filling the coaching vacancy at Ole Miss. NBC Sports’ headline, “Fire up the Les Miles rumor mill at Ole Miss, even if just for fun,” makes perhaps a bridge too far, insofar as it acknowledges the absurd rumorness of this rumor, and you should never throw the game that early in any case.
This post could very well have been titled “BREAKING: Ole Miss to hire former LSU coach Les Miles as its next football coach,” and we here at Red Cup Rebellion would be rocketed out and up into the ether of internet history, but we’re above that.
