We're looking at the video and Les Miles not one of the people who boarded the plane. Flight is not headed to Dallas but to Michigan.

Was there a guy named Allen on it?
I hear he is a pretty cool brother in law and he's in the know.

BATON ROUGE, LA (WAFB/AP) - LSU head coach Les Miles has met with the University of Michigan's athletic director about the coaching job there.
9 Sports has learned that Miles and UM's Dave Brandon met Monday evening at Miles' field house condo off Nicholson Drive.
Brandon and two other Michigan representatives left the meeting and were taken to Baton Rouge Metro Airport in a Cadillac Escalade, where they were seen boarding Brandon's Domino's Pizza plane at 7:40 p.m. The plane left moments later.
The jet, on loan to Brandon, landed in Baton Rouge Monday afternoon fueling speculation that he was on his way to a meeting with Miles.
Miles said at noon Monday that no one from Michigan had yet contacted him directly and he did not know when such a meeting with his alma mater might take place.
He made the comments immediately following the news conference in which junior cornerback Patrick Peterson announced he will enter the NFL Draft. Miles stated he met with LSU underclassmen Monday morning and told them he expects to remain the coach at LSU.
"I am extremely happy here," Miles added.
When asked earlier about Michigan's opening, Miles has only said he loves being the coach of LSU. He has not yet promised to return next season, although his current players have said he has given them the impression he plans to be back.
Of course, Miles is a "Michigan Man." He was an offensive lineman for the Wolverines during college and twice served as an assistant coach during the 80s and 90s. He is widely considered a top candidate to fill the head coaching vacancy at Michigan.
A former LSU athletic director said he doesn't think Miles would take the job with Michigan. He has four kids and is already making close to $4 million.
His LSU contract pays him $3.75 million per year, runs through 2014 and includes an annual one-year roll-over at the discretion of the athletic director that could extend the deal to 2015.
The contract also would make him among the three highest-paid college coaches should he win a second national title at LSU. Miles is 62-17 with a national championship in six years at LSU.
Rich Rodriguez last week was fired as Michigan coach with a 15-22 mark in three seasons.

What is with all the excitement? I realize no one wants Hoke, but has everyone forgotten about Patterson and Gruden? RR should NOT have been fired in order to bring in Les Miles (even if he's not the absolute worst alternative).
If it is LM, this confirms that Brandon had NO plan going into this.

Who cares? I just want a coach. I was in RR's corner the whole way as well but that does not mean I get to be a dick about who the next coach is that we hire. I just want to see us get back to winning and beating OSU again. Who ever DB announces has my support and hope he has yours too. We can't miss this time and the entire Michigan fan base and administration need to pull together. GO BLUE or GO HOME

I concur with Dennis. Miles
I concur with Dennis. Miles
I concur with Dennis. Miles isn't my favourite candidate but it's about to be January 11th and we have no coach, which is inexcusable IMO. And considering there's not really anything to support that Patterson or Gruden are realistic candidates, I'll welcome Miles as the new HC if it is the case.

I'm not a fan of Miles. I've said that all along. But the writing's on the wall that he's coming and there hasn't been anything to suggest that any better candidates have been offered/want the job.
And between Miles and Hoke, I'd take Miles in a second, recruiting issues or not.
January 10th, 2011 at 10:16 PM |
it only makes sense to come back to MI....
it only makes sense to come back to MI....
....if he got a "Yes" from Les, when you connect that to the player meeting tomorrow.
Why come back to tell the team you haven't found a coach yet? And why come back when all the coaches are in Dallas if you don't have a coach yet?
Go Blue!
January 10th, 2011 at 10:21 PM |
I guess

I guess you could think that he went down to Baton Rouge to pay his respects to Les Miles and is heading back to Ann arbor to introduce the coach to the players tomorrow. Someone who might have flown in from San Diego.

More likely...
More likely...
The more likely scneario is that they ran into some major hurdle during the final negotiation and Brandon has to get back to A2 to discuss things with his boss.
If this was a done deal, there would be leaks all over the place by now.

Before people get carried away remember Brandon's words "it is an honor to represent Michigan and discuss our football program's needs and opportunities with a variety of impressive candidates and/or people who can offer valuable advice and input."
He may just be seeking counsel from Miles.
