According to footballscoop. Both were contacted to gauge interest and neither wanted the job.

It is our understanding from sources at Michigan that there is significant disagreement within the building in Ann Arbor regarding the potential candidacy of Les Miles. Hackett very much considers Les a friend and a candidate he would like to pursue. Others in the department do not believe this is in the best interests of Michigan and fear that Les would publicly acknowledge their interest but ultimately choose to remain at LSU, giving the Michigan search a very public black eye.
hmmm les is too classy to do that to his alma mater.

right?

There is a huge gap between what footballscoop says and what I am hearing from other higher ups. Who knows.

i think it's funny

michigan (or factions of the powers that be there) seem to be adamant about straying as far away as possible from Les, but they look sillier and sillier with each failed hire.

You know how I know this guy might be full of shite? He says "les miles MIGHT TURN US DOWN AGAIN". Er, no. Les Miles personally called in 2010, but no one called him back.

seriously, was this the time Miles and the Michigan AD met in Dallas (allegedly) then the UM plane was parked on the tarmac in BR for a couple of hours (allegedly)?

I honestly can't keep all these yrs straight that Les has talked to UM (allegedly).

BS. I won't believe it until I see the press conference on TV. If they actually talked to Butch Jones, somebody up there really doesn't want Miles.

Maybe.
