-Brandon came to talk with Miles last night
-Les's agent also was there apparently
-Les's wife was also involved somewhat

Why aren't we talking about those last 2 aspects of it more? Seems like thats alot of evidence of Les leaving moreso than staying.
Would Miles' agent really come down to meet with he and Brandon if something wasn't going down?

Would his agent come down to discuss a potential job offer? That's his job, isn't it?

lol What the hell?

Can you think of any scenario where Miles is talking to Michigan where the agent wouldn't want to be there? And Michigan would have to sell Kathy as well since those kids have spent the last six years here. This is their home. The younger one's don't know any other place really.

Well wasn't Brandon already in Dallas the day before? Just seems logical they would all be in BR to sign paperwork

Just means Les is heavily considering coming to Michigan and wants his wife there to hear what they had to say. Agent needs to be there for obvious reasons.

Mile's agent has probably spent FAR more time talking to Michigan than Miles has. His agent was involved in all of the preliminary inquiries and should have been there.

because we're busy explaining to tards that requesting that an occasional 8 or 9 win season not be seen as the end of the world is different than requesting that 8 or 9 win seasons be okay for perpetuity.

it's really taking up a lot of our time.

And whats up with all this "Tuesday" talk. According to espn and usatoday the Michigan Miles meeting happened Monday and the LSU Miles meeting started late Monday night and possibly more today.

Because they are mostly irrelevant to the outcome.

Something was going down. They were discussing a job opening at Michigan. If the agent is not there during that meeting, then there is no reason to have an agent in the first place.

It's all going to come down to the first number in front of all those zeros. I think we've all been in a place where we said... I'm not doing this/that but for a $___ I think I would have to live it.
In CLMs case, it's the amount over 3.75M/season that UM can/will offer.

Pesonally, I don't see him leaving.

IMO, Michigan wouldn't have left Miles behind if they had a deal. Odds are nothing was signed last night, so they wouldn't have left Les behind at LSU where he could change his mind.And if he has signed a contract, something would've broken by now. again, JMO.

If that is true then Miles will be at LSU, no way the Michigan AD would leave without having Miles signed if he was the number 1 target IMHO.

ETA: If I were to be listening (contemplating) this big of a decision, my attorney and my wife would be there, too
