Les Miles stepping down?
If it's true, it doesn't really effect Michigan except for coaches we could potentially poach.
Sam McGaw @sammcgaw There are rumors that LSU head football coach Les Miles will step down on Monday after allegedly having an affair with a student. Hmm..
Jacob J Mayer @jacobjmayer Rumors going around that Les Miles is resigning Monday. Haven't seen anything to back it up, but Tigerdroppings admins are working overtime
Awful if true. I really hope it's not. College football doesn't need any more negative news.
You're right. College football will survive. I do wonder, though: which Kelly do you refer to? Chip, I'm guessing?
I suppose I haven't been following college football long enough to know what was talked about when he was at CMU and GVSU.
it was just questionable disciplinary decisions. Star QB getting in trouble multiple but never seeming to face much discipline among other unseemly things.
The CMU murder case could have been a much bigger deal but it was really swept away.
That's a pretty hefty suggestion. Why don't you just explain what the heck you're talking about? And what did he have to do with either of those deaths? He's not the overseer of all the goings on in South Bend.
Investigators wanted to see Sullivan's video footage to figure out what happened. Brian Kelly refused to give the tape up because he said it showed parts of their walkthrough for the upcoming game.
Eventually OSHA was allowed to view edited clips of Sullivan's recording, they were only permitted to view them in a designated location and not allowed to take the tapes with them.
If OSHA has jurisdiction over your workplace they can do anything they want. The only reason why they wouldn't do anything is if there was pressure from above. Eventually Notre Dame was fined 77 thousand dollars but that's spare change for them.
In the first part of ther report Brian Kelly said it was a "Beautiful day", OSHA says otherwise. Here is small portion of the report.
You'll have to forgive me for my ignorance, but are there any links that you can show me that actually talk about this? I'm having a hard time finding anything.
Edit: There's now a link above.
Appreciate the links. This has certainly been eye opening.
Thanks for educating me.
...Petrino.
will you do me and I was like wha-bam!"
"oh yeah"
This must be new, because I'm not sure how this magical .gif could have escaped me otherwise. Pure gold.
Nice touch with the sideburns.
He salutes you BiSB
Also it is important to keep in mind that Mrs. Moeller is about 15 years older than Miles...
I would think that happened in the middle 90's. Les might be 40+, and Mrs Moeller might be close to 55+. Interesting.
That is the age difference. Personally i do not believe that it happened. Les left Michigan for other reasons. Les remained very close to Bo after he left.
Pete Carroll apparently was having an affair with a grad student and Charlie Weis made a public comment about it once.
And in terms of Les Miles a) his wife is definitely not a looker and b) if this student affair is true, then I'm totally buying the whole rumor of how Lloyd wasn't too fond of him because of some inappropriate activities he engaged in with Gary Moellers's wife. Two rumors usually add up to something.
College football losing Les Miles would suck though. This gives me a whole new view to the Les Miles Loves to Eat Grass meme....
Before we all implicate Moeller's wife, we should note that that's just one version of the rumor. Others were that he was sleeping with students.
Keep in mind that when you spread this particular rumor, you're not just making Miles look bad, you're making Mrs. Moeller as well, and that may be totally unfair.
But I have it on good authority that this is the accepted story among those "in the know." In other words, this isn't an internet creation (unlike this latest rumor).
So regardless of what actually happened, whatever DID happen resulted in a significant falling-out between Moeller and Miles.
There are at least some insiders who swear that this story is nonsense.
Again, when you repeat this story you are not just implicating Miles, but also the wife of someone who is still part of the Michigan athletic family. Gary Moeller still attends athletic events frequently. I think we should exercise caution here.
And I'm not going to try to win a "my insiders are more insiderish than your insiders" battle, cause that's not my point. My point is simply that is is a widely held view in many circles (from message board trolls like myself to past and present Athletic Department hoi polloi). And these stories have existed for 17 years. Mentioning in isn't breaking any new ground.
In other words, the rumors (whether fatually true or not) and their general acceptance inform the current relationship between Miles and various Michigan factions.
I don't think we are implicating anyone here. We are just talking about what we heard, read, etc. I know that various idiot journalists surf these blogs/forums and use the information but that's more of a indictment on the state of journalism today. Anyways, it's not like this is some official place where everything is of fact. Everything will be okay.
can confirm
This site won't tolerate an unsubstantiated rumor for a minute... but, if the rumor has been around long enough, and BISB heard it, then it must be true?
discretion is the better part of valor my friend and I would prefer that we not sit here like high school students and debate who slept with who...
it's the reason moellar went ballistic at that restaurant and lost his job. player/friends have told me this on a number of occassions. therefore, more than 'rumor', not a debate, just confirming that BiSB was on solid ground with his comment, nothing more.
You see what I did there???
You imply that Les Miles wife is "definitely not a looker"...
