Michigan Contacts Miles
A cell phone rings, plays “Born on the Bayou.” A man wakes up, looks at the clock. He sighs audibly, looks at his phone, and grudgingly answers.
Les Miles: Hello?
[Unintelligible Sounds from other line.]
Miles: Hello?
Other line [loud]: LES!
Miles: Yes?
Other line [louder]: LLLLLLLESSSSSSS!
Miles: Bill?
Bill Martin: Les! What happening?
Miles: It’s three-thirty in the morning.
Martin: I am so — hold on [yelling in background] — so, what’s up?
Miles: I was sleeping.
Martin: Oh, sorry, I just wanted to call you.
Miles: You’re drunk.
Martin: No. No, no, no. No no. I just wanted to talk. I know I’ve done some things wrong…
Miles [Interrupting]: Don’t.
Martin: I’ve done some things wrong. And I’ve been bad to you. I know that. I know I don’t deserve another chance. I just think we could be really great together, you know?
Miles: I’m happy here.
Martin: You could be happy here. We can forget about that whole lowballing thing. Just come back. I’ll do anything you want. I just need you here.
Miles: I can’t, Bill.
Martin: But I need a coach. [Begins crying] I took you for granted, and I’ll never do that again. Never. Without you, I’m nothing.
Miles: Don’t call me anymore.
Martin: I don’t understand what you’re doing with Louisiana State. It’s not right for you. You belong here. [More sternly] You know that, right. You’ll come crawling back. And I might have another coach by then. So just understand what you’re doing. I hate you. I never want to talk to you again! Even if you said now you’d come to Michigan I wouldn’t take you!
[Hangs up]
Miles puts his cell phone down and attempts to go back to sleep. The phone beeps. Miles opens his phone and looks at his text message inbox.
