    It's a private plane. I see lots of LSU-painted RV's on the road and they are LSU football related. Just a fan who is proud of his university and he may fly university people from time to time. But apparently the medical transport story is valid.

    This plane doesn't belong to LSU either.

    The differences in your example of an LSU airplane and my example of the UM plane is tens of millions of dollars....that LSU plane has propellers for the love of God. It's not uncommon for someone to decorate something like that into their favorite team. The kinda of plane that was in BR yesterday is indicitive of an organization's airplane.....OR A REALLY BIG TIMER.

    That airplane in Baton Rouge was Miles to Michigan related. Too much of a coincidence.

    You just made my point. We know who the plane belongs to . . . a wealthy Michigan alumni.

    OK then, why was it here for 2 hours and then flew to Georgia? WJBO reported that the plane was not flying on University of Michigan business. Why would Michigan send a plane like that if they were covertly discussing the job with Les?

    Why was it in BR yesterday when Les and his family were in Dallas? It makes no sense. If it was Michigan fotball related, perhaps it had more to do with the fact that Michigan is recruiting a Covington Defensive tackle and a Georgia safety. The LSU-painted turboprop pictured is often used by LSU coaches for recruiting trips.

    Fair enough. I see your point. But do you see mine?

    Are you a "where there's smoke, there's fire" kinda guy?

    Do you agree that there is an awfully large coincidence here?

    Perhaps. But coincidences happen. And several things aren't adding up.

    However it might shut up those who think that Michigan is too cheap to pay a top SEC salary for a head coach.
