Les Miles' son Ben announces transfer to Texas A&M

We could soon see Les Miles in Texas A&M gear.

No, the former LSU coach hasn’t joined Jimbo Fisher’s staff in College Station but his son Ben announced on Sunday that he plans to continue his college career with the Aggies. Ben Miles was a three-star fullback in the 2017 recruiting cycle and redshirted his first season on campus. He signed with Nebraska coming out of high school but announced his transfer following the Cornhuskers’ hiring of Scott Frost.

This move is the latest in a series of moves by A&M that could potentially needle the Tigers. It’s long been rumored that LSU coveted Jimbo Fisher and soon after the Aggies hired the former Florida State coach, he went after LSU defensive coordinator Dave Aranda. While that effort was in vain, the Aggies have hired former LSU GM Austin Thomas this offseason.

Ben Miles announced the move with the following statement on Twitter:

Made it to Campus… I am really excited about my opportunity here in College Station! Once again, thank you to the coaches that recruited me to Nebraska and invested in me for a year. This is my next step. I can’t wait to get started! pic.twitter.com/6XELTHBmTy

Miles will have to sit out the 2018 season due to NCAA transfer rules then will have three years left to play in College Station for Fisher. It will be interested to see if his father visits College Station come the fall, especially on Nov. 24 when LSU comes to town.
