Okay, since this is about to heat up, what is the requirement for information to be posted here? Apparently, Tweets from sportscasters is not allowed. Or, do they have to work for ESPN?

Must it only be favorable information?

Does it have to come from a website? A newspaper? Carrier pigeon?

2 sources or 3?

What exactly is needed to start a post regarding potential coaches who might work at the state university and their possible move to another university (name not to be mentioned)?

Just so no one screws up and gets their thread whacked.

Only da rant experts are allowed to post rumors, tweets, and the like. If you are one, you would already know.

Heres a recap of all of his tweets regarding Miles.

Might want to read in reverse order.

quote:

@bigbluetweets: Les is more! about 10 hours ago via Twitter for BlackBerry®


quote:

@Rosenberg_Mike I've been saying for a year that Les Miles will be at Michigan in 2011. I had a VERY good source! #LSU #UMich about 10 hours ago via Twitter for BlackBerry® in reply to Rosenberg_Mike

#Terps filled their coaching vacancy, and now that #Pitt is open again don;t expect it to be Leach. Michigan is going to get Les for more! Sun Jan 02 2011 18:18:50 (Central Standard Time) via web


quote:

@DerekPonamsky From Michigan media who are "friends" of Les & Kathy. One of them told me Les was leaving OSU to LSU when Les denied it. 12:03 AM Jan 2nd via Twitter for BlackBerry® in reply to DerekPonamsky


quote:

@DerekPonamsky You couldn't be more wrong on this one. Conversations have been going on between Les' reps and UM for over a year! 11:18 PM Jan 1st via Twitter for BlackBerry® in reply to DerekPonamsky


quote:

#LesMiles to Michigan. I have a pretty good source on this one! #LSU about 1 hour ago via Twitter for BlackBerry®


eta: some credibility:

I don't know why the one at the bottom says "1 hour ago" but it shows up under January 1st. If you look at the "Les Miles" hashtag on Twitter, someone else retweeted it less than an hour ago as well, so it is current. Weird.

Still, the guy is adamant that he has sources in the Michigan media.

By the way, Jim Kleinpeter from the Times-Picayune tweeted about 2 hours ago from Alleva that they haven't heard anything from Michigan about Miles. What's that all about? If Miles isn't going, just release a statement. Don't tell Kleinpeter that you haven't heard from Michigan.

Dolla: how can you credit those tweets when you have the AD saying he's still undecided. It's stupid to think Les' people have been talking to UM's people all year, especially with UM off to the start they had. This is stupid... Rich Rod Has NOT Been Fired

His point (and mine) is that it is as credible as anything else. Guy claims to have sources.

What is possible is that there were preliminary discussions after last season with Miles to see if he would be interested or if it would be a good fit. Some thought that RR might be fired after last season. This has been bad for a long time now.

I think that the guy has sources, but there are probably a lot of sources on this legitimately saying different things based on what they've heard.

Yeah, I did that. And, the post got whacked anyway. Oh well. I'm sure there's nothing to it.

You have Chicken come to the board asking if it should be shut down due to very little activity, yet intriguing and interesting threads get whacked...inconsistently I might add.

Yes we understand not everything will pan out and not all info will be accurate but if we are going to have a coaching changes board then let it ride. This message board should not need a link to ESPN for super duper confirmation.

Latest tweet from GSwaim:

@bobiafra Be careful what you wish for. Les Miles is coming, and he's never lost to the #Buckeyes.
about 1 hour ago via Twitter for BlackBerry® in reply to bobiafra


He's still maintaining Les Miles to Michigan and he's not backing down from it. He's even calling out other people on it and letting folks know. He might be wrong, but he's very confident in his sources.

Very interesting.
