Doubtful. They're from the journalistic school of "Just throw shite until something sticks."

Not at all. Les isn't coming there, and they can't stand that somewhere can be better than the frozen taint they call the Big House. Plus, there is no accountability in the media anymore. It's easier to run a story and print a retraction, than get scooped by another agency. It has gotten out of hand.

-- LSU football coach Les Miles issued the following statement on Tuesday regarding the conversation he had with Michigan last week:

“I had a conversation with Michigan last week that covered a wide range of topics. I was doing nothing more than helping them with their search for a football coach, just as any loyal alumnus might do. It was nothing more than that.

“I’m not a candidate for that job and I will not be a candidate for the job. I was only assisting them in their search for a coach. I have a great job at a wonderful place, a place that my family calls home. It’s time that Michigan goes on with their search for a football coach. I’ll say it again, I’m going to be the coach at LSU next season.”

The DFP article stated that Miles was still the leading candidate for the job and that the phone call was an interview for the position.

Wrong and Wrong.
