So Miles denies it all..as they always do....and all of a sudden there's a contract extension. It played well due to the upcoming SEC champ. game and possible ( and now for sure) nc game.

And Miles was just caught talking to Michigan over the phone a few days ago...again...about everything except he being hc at Michigan...supposedly.

So it all kinda makes one think this isn't over until early January. There's a faction at Michigan that doesn't want Miles and maybe these are where "contacts" come into play.

Miles is their no. 1 guy, though. I still think he goes there...but we'll see.

It sure cheats the players .
I'll be very surprised too if Miles isn't at Michigan next year. He has a team in the hunt for a national championship. He is simply doing all the right things to keep that going as you said. The contract...the talk...the everything. I can't imagine why on earth he would leave the Michigan buyout in the contract if he is all about LSU?? If Michigan doesn't have a coach hired before the championship game I think the writing is on the wall.

Unless I'm wrong of course.

That was good stuff...of course.He may not go there...but that will be a shock to me if he doesn't.



I should mention Dannie refuses to attend MOTO class here anymore so the words kind of are wasted now.
