ESPN-Michigan to announce Les Miles as Head Coach

I agree. That and they quoted Herb Vincent leads me to believe the report is accurate.

What a crazy week it has been.

lsutiga didn't want that 10 1/2 visor anyway. :hihi:

 

I don't think you would hold a press conference for that TODAY, but hey I may be wrong. It seems more likely a deal will be announced.

ATLANTA - LSU football coach Les Miles is staying with the Tigers and not going to his alma mater, Michigan, LSU officials confirmed this afternoon.

The school has scheduled a press conference for 1:50 EST time today, hours before LSU kicks off in the Southeastern Conference championship game, to announce the new deal, according to people involved in the matter, and Miles has reportedly informed the team of his decision.

The sudden press conference and the news came after ESPN reported this morning that Miles would take the open coaching job at Michigan, his alma mater. Speculation has been rampant about Miles future for weeks, but he has never tipped his hand on whether he was leaning toward Baton Rouge or Ann Arbor.

Miles could not be reached for comment and the exact reasons for his apparent decision remained unclear. LSU Athletic Director Skip Bertman has consistently said he believed Miles would remain at LSU.

When asked about reports that Miles has elected to stay at LSU, Herb Vincent, the school's senior associate athletic director, said "I believe those to be true" Vincent said the schoolwould address the matter fully at the afternoon press conference.


Mich... might want to reevaluate your position with the University of Michigan

 

Rumor now is we offered him Saban type money to stay, and he accepted.

This is a huge mistake IMO. IF TRUE.

This day sucks so far.

 

Joke I heard at work yesterday:

Why does Spurrier wear that visor?

To hide the circumcision scar.

 

Don't be so hard. My take is things changed 180 degrees in the last 12 - 24 hours.

 

I know. I know. Money talks.

 

now that miles/bo r gone, this is what ive heard:

saban was in town eating at ruths w some big boosters to see if they could work out the #'s 4 his buyout w bama which is huge, i dont know if that gets done, but his wife wants to come back

ss was also in br having dinner w sb & a couple of others

tt hasnt excepted the hawgs offer because he is waiting to see if the tigers com a knockin

i lik tt mor than any of the others

any facts r thoughts?

 

You're full of ... it

Press Conference Today -- Miles staying most likely (Huge raise)

 

Hate to break it to you, but Miles is staying.
