Miles declined offer from Michigan

A reliable source has told me that Les Miles did indeed receive an offer from Michigan last night, but it was not good enough to leave Baton Rouge for Ann Arbor. This would contradict reports that Michigan was not really interested in Miles or that Michigan did not make an offer to him.
Now that we have that behind us, the only question remains: Will Les replace Gary Crowton?

This makes a lot more sense than Miles being a "smokescreen". That would serve no purpose. If they wanted Hoke, there was no need to put on a show.
Clearly they wanted Miles.

I'm deathly afraid that the good offensive showing in the Cotton Bowl will save Crowton.

They did really want him. Miles didn't want to make it a public embarrassement for UM so it is possible he leaked to ESPN that he would accept if offered. This way it seems like they didn't offer.
I think Crowton stays, unfortunately

I must re-evaluate my entire attitude towards Coach Miles, because I was completely wrong about something important: I would have bet a month's pay that Michigan would not offer the job to him. I was completely wrong about that.
I thought that Coach Miles is a good coach. I was wrong. He's better than just "good."

You still think Crowton is gone?

Sadly, I am afraid this will be the case even though one good game with a month to prepare does not - to me anyway - outweigh the week in and week out lack of offensive production the entire year (except, perhaps, the Alabama game, for which - not coincidentally - they had two weeks to prepare).

Poor attempt by Michigan to save face.

I am surprised Michigan held back after all of that, "We'll do what it takes..." talk.
Miles must be happy @ LSU and told them what it would take to get him, whereupon they said, "
"
Kind of like me with my '68 Chebby.
I'm glad he's staying!

Any word on whether he was low balled or not?

Makes sense to me.
They didn't fly all the way down here to taste the grass.
They thought they had a shot at him, IMO.

Doesn't make any sense to me why they would low ball him. They supposed to have more money than Gates up there stashed away.
