EDIT....FWIW...IMO...Reports indicate Miles to stay at LSU
January 9th, 2011 at 7:52 PM ^
Here is a bunch of baseless speculation from someone totally outside the process. Keep clicking and fork over that cash to get inside THE FORT!!!
January 9th, 2011 at 7:54 PM ^
Please, can we talk to that guy. At the very least his hire would buy 5 solid years before we have to do this again.
January 9th, 2011 at 8:07 PM ^
January 9th, 2011 at 8:08 PM ^
No baggage, no ethics issues. The only question is he's 58 and we seem to be older than 50 adverse at this point.
Runs a spread offense - pass oriented though, but made good use of Brad Smith.
January 9th, 2011 at 7:49 PM ^
Don't worry, whoever started this post doesn't know what the hell they've looked up. LSU fans on tigerdroppings have spotted Les Miles meeting with two unidentified men at Canes as we speek and the UofM jet is still at the airport in Banton Rouge. Go Miles. Hoke is a joke. Should have just kept Richard
January 9th, 2011 at 7:52 PM ^
At least those "Who Dat" Girls are happy.
January 9th, 2011 at 7:53 PM ^
Please change the title and description.
This is a rumor.

January 9th, 2011 at 8:19 PM ^
And since Brandon indicated that he wants to bring Michigan coach's pay in line with the rest does this mean Brady Joke is going to be making $5,000,000 per year? Only in America!
January 9th, 2011 at 7:54 PM ^
Quit stirring up crap when you have no credible source to fall back on,...you tool.
January 9th, 2011 at 9:32 PM ^
I will be awaiting your apology when Les says "No Blue".....
January 9th, 2011 at 7:57 PM ^
FYI, the guy that said Les is staying at LSU, has since been banned from tigerdroppings.com after making his first four posts...The poster was a troll.
January 9th, 2011 at 7:57 PM ^
Only 4 postings,... LOL...!!! douche.
January 9th, 2011 at 8:07 PM ^
his name was RickFlair and ended ever post with Woooooooohhh..... in some sort of douche bagged reference to Rick Flair.
January 9th, 2011 at 8:14 PM ^
January 9th, 2011 at 8:53 PM ^
The Nature Boy Ric Flair is the MAN.
Woooooo
January 9th, 2011 at 8:02 PM ^
wake me up when this is all over.
January 9th, 2011 at 8:06 PM ^
While the search is still going on, threads like this should really be marked with something like PBSB for "probably bullshit but..."
January 9th, 2011 at 8:10 PM ^
I hope so.
January 9th, 2011 at 8:14 PM ^
If we hire Miles, I won't know whether to be excited or not...
January 9th, 2011 at 8:16 PM ^
Looks like a lot of wasted aviation fuel going back and forth to Baton Rouge.
January 9th, 2011 at 8:23 PM ^
January 9th, 2011 at 8:24 PM ^
Someone was saying that the 5.2mil offered for JH was for him AND his staff.
January 9th, 2011 at 8:24 PM ^
FWIW, over at tigerdroppings they are generally defending Miles on the oversigning matter. There was also a link to this story:

January 9th, 2011 at 9:16 PM ^
At this point I'm fine with Miles. In fact I hope he is it, and he won't be allowed to do that there. I even think there is a very reasonable argument he was doing what everyone did in the SEC. But that article was a load of self-justifying bullshit.
January 9th, 2011 at 8:27 PM ^
SIAP.
Definitely tracking 3 planes now.
That NetJets plane (I think wolves90 found this) that went from Dallas to Baton Rouge to Savannah is now in Westchester, NY.
LINK
I would bet this plane brought Brandon or someone involved with the UM coaching search to Baton Rouge last night. NYC is where the search firm is based and Lloyd Carr lives at Hilton Head and the Michigan plane has been to both Hilton Head and Westchester early and often this week.
:blackheli:
January 9th, 2011 at 8:54 PM ^
I used to fly for NetJets. They have about 500 aircraft. Don't read into anything beyond where that aircraft goes after Westchester County. It will most likely have someone else on it after that since the fleet is so large and they have thousands of owners.
January 9th, 2011 at 10:40 PM ^
The post was from the LSU boards. Nothing to put any stock in it. Just found it fitting in with all the stalking of planes both fan bases have been doing lately.
January 9th, 2011 at 8:34 PM ^
A tidbit: LSU football coach Les Miles will appear with Patrick Peterson at his NFL announcement on Monday | NOLA.com
Per Angelique Chengelis on Twitter. Take it FWIW, and to me, that's nothing.
January 9th, 2011 at 8:35 PM ^
lol isn't this the same Rivals.com who's Michigan website is convinced Miles is coming here? I'm staying off of the internet until I turn on ESPN one morning and see that we've hired someone.
January 9th, 2011 at 8:39 PM ^
Blow it up JHack please blow it up!
January 9th, 2011 at 8:40 PM ^
January 9th, 2011 at 8:54 PM ^
Les Miles will be announced as the new Michigan HC on Monday.
January 9th, 2011 at 9:02 PM ^
Fuck, if this is true.
I was just beginning to like the latest mgobanner.
January 9th, 2011 at 9:06 PM ^
Start the Fire Dave Brandon Site Now
January 9th, 2011 at 9:11 PM ^
We can't meet with Miles until tomorrow as it is due to his contract. He gave the AD his 24hr notice this afternoon. Tomorrow is the day when DB can work his magic, if the money is the same or close Les will come home.
January 9th, 2011 at 10:04 PM ^
She says:
LSU spokesman responds to email I sent says LSU AD Joe Alleva still hasn't been contacted by UM.He spoke to AD 2 hours ago
That was sent out around 9:30 tonight. Would seem to contradict theory that Les Miles gave notice this afternoon.
January 9th, 2011 at 9:20 PM ^
Can we all agree that this is a pretty non-serious report?
January 9th, 2011 at 10:24 PM ^
This is probably bullshit. I believe it is more likely that he gave LSU the nod that he was going to meet with UM on Monday, and if the reports that he would not say no if offered are true, something will be leaked late Monday or on Tuesday about Miles to Michigan (hopefully not by Herbstreit).

January 9th, 2011 at 10:27 PM ^
Why does it seem like we're always close to landing Miles in the evening, and then we come close to losing him in the afternoon? Well, now that it's the evening, I guess the pendulum swings back our way. Brandon should interview him at the stroke of midnight.
January 9th, 2011 at 10:56 PM ^
Les is a terrible coach. We are screwed.
January 9th, 2011 at 10:56 PM ^
Les is a terrible coach. We are screwed.
January 9th, 2011 at 11:06 PM ^
So terrible that he only wins 78.5% of his games.
