I hope we get some news soon. I can't be on here all day for another week!
January 10th, 2011 at 4:15 PM ^
My thoughts exactly!! I can't believe how much i've been on this site. My friends think I have a problem.
January 10th, 2011 at 4:17 PM ^
your friends are the ones with a problem!
January 10th, 2011 at 4:17 PM ^
Well, if it makes you feel any better, it seems perfectly ( pause to hit F5 on my other tab ) fine to me.
January 10th, 2011 at 4:22 PM ^
I appreciate your support. It's good to know that I am among true friends!
January 10th, 2011 at 4:32 PM ^
My F5 button is broken.
January 10th, 2011 at 4:35 PM ^
no longer reads F5.
January 10th, 2011 at 6:30 PM ^
I'm more of a Command+R guy myself.
January 10th, 2011 at 5:10 PM ^
Yeah, my wife is about to chuck the friggin' laptop out the window.
January 10th, 2011 at 5:13 PM ^
I'm checking this site/twitter on my laptop or droid every 5 mins. My wife told me I have an addiction.
January 10th, 2011 at 5:20 PM ^
My wife is a big M fan and even she can't take my obsession.
January 10th, 2011 at 5:36 PM ^
My fiance officially hates me. Please Les, save my future marriage by ending this tonight.
January 10th, 2011 at 5:41 PM ^
January 10th, 2011 at 5:27 PM ^
Only one reasonable solution to that isn't there...?
Hopefully Les hasn't eaten all the grass beneath the window sill, or she could be in for a real hard landing...
January 10th, 2011 at 5:23 PM ^
i'm starting to think i have a problem. with this, bleacherreport, and flighttracker always up and running. plus getting my twitter updates on my BB. my wife is starting to get angry, but it's all worth it as long as Miles comes home.
Go Blue!!!
January 10th, 2011 at 4:26 PM ^
January 10th, 2011 at 4:31 PM ^
This search is killing me.
January 10th, 2011 at 4:31 PM ^
or pathetic enough to stalk db and lm so that we know where they are.
Just wondering.
January 10th, 2011 at 7:14 PM ^
Good question, I'm on it.
Coach stalking team ASSEMBLE!!!
January 10th, 2011 at 4:48 PM ^
They don't play around, when it comes to delivery
January 10th, 2011 at 5:17 PM ^
January 10th, 2011 at 7:29 PM ^
I sure hope that Miles isn't our only option. I like Pinkel too.
January 10th, 2011 at 6:33 PM ^
gosh we are some dedicated fans.. go blue!
January 10th, 2011 at 4:06 PM ^
I say announcement is made on Wednesday, just in time to introduce him at halftime of the M/OSU bball game that night.
January 10th, 2011 at 4:08 PM ^
That'd be a nice sight. Against OSU nonetheles(s) HAHA GET IT?
January 10th, 2011 at 4:09 PM ^
But I'll be surprised if we hear anything before Friday. At least from the report Brian Cook posted, it doesn't sound like any discussions with Miles have gotten far, or even begun.
If Miles turns us down flat, an announcement Wed would mean that we just hired our second choice. Brandon would not want to jump that quickly into a media-fest of second-guessing our second choice.
January 10th, 2011 at 4:14 PM ^
I just hope that Les isn't using us to get more money from LSU (which didn't that happen 3 years ago when he got his last contract extension?)
January 10th, 2011 at 4:16 PM ^
With the info that's come out in the last week, it sounds like he wanted the job but it was never offered to him.
January 10th, 2011 at 5:07 PM ^
That's the way I'm leaning, too. Now hopefully it wasn't in favor of choke...er...Hoke.
January 10th, 2011 at 4:15 PM ^
This assumes that Miles is our first choice. For all you know they do not want to hire him, but want his advice on a hire. Or, they are only making a decision after exhausting all options. They might be settled to hire someone like Patterson or Gruden, but feel that Hoke and Miles deserve at least an interview.
January 10th, 2011 at 4:19 PM ^
I don't think Les was ever our first choice; Harbaugh had that distinction. At this point, Miles is likely the first choice of the non-Harbaugh options.
January 10th, 2011 at 4:29 PM ^
I definitely have to disagree here. From the way things have gone down, after Harbaugh said no, it looks like someone else is Plan B, Miles is Plan C, and Hoke is Plan D. I think that Brandon has been stringing Miles along as he attempted to land Plan B. He wanted to keep Miles as a fall-back, so he slow played him...resulting in the bizzarre press-conference we saw today.
January 10th, 2011 at 5:16 PM ^
January 10th, 2011 at 5:20 PM ^
lives in Scottsdale. Just sayin.'
January 10th, 2011 at 5:10 PM ^
If DB wanted Les' advice on a hire, I think he would probably pick up the phone and call him. Somehow I don't see this as a reason for a face to face meeting.
January 10th, 2011 at 5:22 PM ^
Let's face it, they were teammates and are still on good speaking terms. DB doesn't need permission from LSU to take to him, if DB was only looking for advise. This is more than that. It doesn't mean he gets the job automatically on the other hand.
January 10th, 2011 at 4:13 PM ^
At his point I'm all for it! Let's get him up there at half, introduce him, let the fans go nuts and then unleash his crazy on Crisler and watch the Maize Rage all start jumping and clapping in the the no-use-of-the-fingers-style-clap
Seriously, if he doesn't unleash some crazy anti-OSU-MSU-ND antics in his eccentric Bo-esque, otherwise simply insane, style then I will be sad.
If it's him, I want him off the wall grass eating, running triple-reverse-fake-punts on third down.
January 10th, 2011 at 4:17 PM ^
No grass to eat at Crisler, he might lick the floor.
January 10th, 2011 at 4:23 PM ^
Maybe we'll start playing basketball on grass, just like Hoke thinks we already do.
January 10th, 2011 at 5:20 PM ^
funny
January 10th, 2011 at 4:23 PM ^
Any chance he eats some grass at Michigan Stadium...just to make a point?
January 10th, 2011 at 4:58 PM ^
I hope he tries. I've seen people eat grass before -- but never turf. That'd be a funny sight.
January 10th, 2011 at 5:29 PM ^
that picture reminds me so much of my old fraternity days with the puke bucket nearby.
January 10th, 2011 at 5:24 PM ^
give him any ideas!
January 10th, 2011 at 4:31 PM ^
If it's Hoke, there's no way he is announced at the BBall game...too much of a risk that people would boo. It would have to be someone majore like Patterson or Gruden (even announcing Miles at the game might be risky).
January 10th, 2011 at 4:32 PM ^
January 10th, 2011 at 5:14 PM ^
Gotta believe that Brandon knows Hoke will be an initially unpopular choice and allow everyone the chance to warm to it slowly by maybe letting him land some recruits or at spring practice rather than throw him in front of the Crisler crowd.
January 10th, 2011 at 4:06 PM ^
do they serve dominos onbaord that plane? or peanuts?
January 10th, 2011 at 4:08 PM ^
It's those cookies from Delta. Those things are addictive.
