if its Hoke *shudder*

Harbaugh would have been nice but realistically Miles, I believe is the best option for us right now. Hes a proven winner in an extremely difficult conference, he won an NC, he won an SEC Championship, he's beat OSU, and for Michigan fans where Michigan ties matter (not me), he went here, played here for the most beloved coach here and gets the tradition and rivalries. He's older, but he's got a good 7-8 years in him I'd imagine. He can retire here, probably a hero for bringing Michigan back (I seriously doubt he'd be a flop here) and hopefully by then Harbaugh will be over the NFL and we can bring him in.

Miles would do you guys a world of good. I wish this crap was going down next season.. not a great time for him to leave. But if he does, we'll survive.

Wow...I thought Michigan fans were bat shite crazy....but now I am 100% sure. Do you people really think that your program is really in a place right now to pull a NC winning coach away for a few years and then an NFL head coach rolls in to town after he retires???? Christ you people are delusional.

Hoke would be a great hire for UM.

Seriously.

Truth is, most LSU fans are hoping you'll take Miles off our hands. He fits better at Michigan. Not that we'll hire a better coach than Miles (I have zero faith in Alleva) but LSU fans are lukecold on Miles and it'd be best for all parties if he moved on.

But if UM is smart, they'd hire Hoke. He has a brighter future, IMO. Hiring Miles would be a safer play, but you have more upside potential with Hoke IMO.
