re: Why would michigan go after miles?

the rumor is Miles slept with Moellers wife

I don't think there is any love lost between Carr and Miles. So long as Carr has an office in the AD, it is going to be tough to get Miles

quote:

the rumor is Miles slept with Moellers wife and told kids on the recruiting trail that Lloyd had Parkinsons and wouldn't be the HC at Michigan much longer. I think it's a crock of BS personally.

---

quote:

---

He slept with Moeller's wife while Mo was HC and Miles was on staff (and was promptly removed once Lloyd became the coach), and he told recruits on the recruiting trail that Lloyd had Parkinson's and wouldn't be around if they went to Michigan.

that's not why he stayed home once eugene committed to UM his father (or uncle whichever) was mysteriously released from prison in louisiana. you do the math

I don't really care about "losing" Les Miles, but I cannot watch LSU anymore since Eugene would probably have given us 1-2 more wins this year.

Have it from a pretty good source... that Bo called up Miles to bitch him out about the Jai Eugene recruitment. Eugene was basically coming to Michigan. Don't know if there was any more to it than Miles nabbing a Michigan commit at the last second... i.e. the way he went about it... or what.

Jesus Christ, can you people get the rumor right? It was Lloyd's wife he's supposed to have slept with and that was what led to Lloyd's divorce.

Not everyone who trashes Miles is necessarily a RR supporter. It's the faction loyal to Carr that hates him the most. As for whether he actually slept with Moeller's wife, that rumor is virtually impossible to prove or disprove, but it is telling that a number of well-connected people believe it. A still larger number of people maintain that Miles was told confidential information about Lloyd's health (apparently a Parkinson's diagnosis) and then not only didn't keep quiet, but actually used it against Lloyd in recruiting, which is a pretty shocking betrayal if you ask me. It's not hard to understand why Lloyd would want no part of this man in Ann Arbor

I talked with booster with very old family connections in the program so said the exact same thing over a year ago. I did not probe on the illness mentioned, not sure if it truly is Parkinson's. Considering this person would be considered in the top echelon of Michigan boosters/family connects, I had not reason to doubt him on his word

Last week the Moeller entry in Wikipedia metioned Miles by name as the cause of the restaurant argument between Moeller and his wife. Yesterday, the reference was gone.

It is a rather interesting concept, though, and would explain a lot. If all of the Miles stuff is true, then he is right where he belongs in Louisiana.

I think Miles made it clear when he referred to our biggest rival as "Ohio" and proceeded to state "maybe one day, Michigan will win that game again." Nothing like making fun of a team to reiterate "I am not interested." Neither are we a-hole.

Sincerely,

Michigan fans that think Les Miles is a DB

can you say "horse's arse" I was in school with Les. A purebread horse's arse. Banging someone else's wife, using Parkinsons to recruit against Lloyd, this is the level I expected for Lester.....who I remember as a man who loved working his mullett.
Les aint at Michigan, because he has already been here, so we know what a jerk he is. I would rather go through what we are going through with RichRod than have Les here acting like the messiah.

miles did nail moeller's wife. he broke the unspoken rule. its a big reason, if not the only reason, he had to go to colorado. its also a big part of the reason lloyd got the head job instead of him when moeller was fired. maybe moeller's wife's infidelity had a little bit to do with him turning into an angry drunk? not hard to imagine. maybe lloyd, bo and others saw les as the reason moeller's life went to crap for a while there and he lost his job? maybe that is why lloyd and others in the know at michigan were so oppposed to miles getting the job? he broke the biggest unspoken rule amongst coaches of the same staff. there was no way he'd be welcomed back into the circle.

but, because of his enormous success at lsu, and the lack of knowledge amongst most alumni donors to the situation, there was a great push to hire miles. lloyd and others in the know wanted nothing of it. martin had to to do SOMETHING to appeal to the calls of the alumni. and so goes the scheme.

desmond howard, a member of the search committee, breaks the story to idiot osu alum (a perk) and fellow espn crew member herbstreit that miles will be offered, and will accept the uofm game on the morning of the sec championship game. bill martin is, coincidentally, on a sail boat without a cell phone for the entire day. miles is faced with these rumors. the lsu administration is telling him, "right now, in or out." he doesnt know if he will or will not be offered the michigan job. he cannot contact bill martin. lloyd and others ignore his phone calls, if there were any. stay at lsu, win a national championship, or possibly be out of any job!?!?!?!

les miles makes that stupid speech, pledges his allegiance to lsu, denies the rumors, herby looks like an idiot, miles is out of the race, no one knows about the moeller situation, all is well...michigan pursues its real candidates.
