    LSU and Les Miles have agreed in principle to a new contract that will run through the 2017 season.

    LSU athletic director Joe Alleva says Miles' annual pay of a little more than $3.75 million will remain the same.

    Miles has won 62 games and five bowls, including a 2007 national title in his first six years with the Tigers. Alleva says the university wants to maintain stability at the top of a winning program.

    Miles, who met with Michigan athletic director Dave Brandon Monday about the coaching vacancy the Wolverines had at the time, says Baton Rouge is home to his family now and that staying at LSU is "the right thing to do."
