Michigan hires Les Miles

ESPN is reporting that the Michigan Wolverines have hired LSU head coach Les Miles as their new head coach. The official announcement will come next week, probably Monday. In addition, the Wolverines have hired former Georgia Tech defensive coordinator Jon Tenuta to run their defense. So, what does everyone think about this hire? Good move for UM?

Re: Michigan hires Les Miles

It was clear as soon as Carr announced his retirement that Miles would become the next coach. It was just a matter of how the whole deal with LSU being #1 would work out. That only lasted another week or two, lol.

Hoo-boy. Anyone see the news conference? Miles was not happy. I get the feeling that if he was supposed to go to Michigan, he won't now.

Probably could not come together on a price.

How mad would LSU have been to lose 2 coaches like this.

I think it has more to do with the story coming out (Michigan leaking it?) on the eve of the SEC Championship.

ESPN.com is reporting that Miles is staying at LSU.

This thing will have more drama than any soap opera!

ESPN - Miles will stay at LSU, working out new contract - College Football

Re: Michigan hires Les Miles

ESPN continues to get stories wrong, then refuse to apologize for their blunder. Just a couple of months ago, ESPN insisted Eli Manning would miss about two months due to a shoulder injury. Manning never missed a single game.

Now this story, did anyone see Miles' press conference? He didn't look too happy.

Re: Michigan hires Les Miles

Anyone heard from Herbstreit since the Miles press conference? He's the one who broke the erroneous story this morning.
