In 2007 Miles said if offered Michigan Job, he will accept it. Michigan's President said she can not sign the offer before they meet face to face. Miles said he had SEC Champ game to play. They can meet after the game. Then the news leaked (espn kirk herbstreit), Miles tried to contact AD Martin, Martin was sailing in the ocean in Florida and did not pick up the phone. So technically you can say Miles never offered. But it is really very close to be offered. The AD oral offered just need the President to meet Miles and approve it. 2011, the second time, Dave Brandon, the control freak, went to Miles' house and insulated Miles. He told Miles he can not offer the job to Miles because blah blah... So the second time, Miles was never considered. Dave Brandon, the control freak, is very smart. He hired pet dog Hoke and hired Greg Mandision from Ravens thinking the defense side should be good. He never thought Greg Mandision's defense is not reliable. The setup was there just not work out as planned. He also was very arrogant when dealing with Jim Harbough. Miles and JH will not come to work with Dave Brandon. So Dave Brandon is the first one fired. Paved the way for JH and Miles. Dave Brandon also replaced the old Michigan people with his own people in the Atheletic Department. So more firings are expected in Michigan atheletic department. They are going to clean the house. Those Pizza Marketing people will be let go.
I believe you

Obviously Jimbo Fisher has continued to develop QB's after he left LSU while LSU hasn't developed a high school recruit once in Les Miles tenure.
Making it to a NC game with JJ/JL is pretty incredible, IMO.
Also, Les has done tons right.....but QB development is his Achilles Heal.

So the quarterbacks we had 2005-2007, including Flynn, who spent more time under Miles than any other coach, needed no developing or coaching at all? How do you account for the fact our passing numbers were better in 2005 than in 2004 and continued to improve thereafter? The QBs improved without any coaching at all?
I love how some of you idiots think that once a kid is recruited he is fully developed and will never need any coaching thereafter. The coach that recruited him gets all the credit, unless, of course, he tanks.
You're ignoring something. Flynn and Russell agreed to play football for LSU when Miles wasn't the coach.
The question is what kind of QBs agree to play QB for LSU when Miles is the coach.
Can you answer that question?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Miles have a winning record against Urban Meyer?
How many coaches have a winning record against the current head coach of Ohio State? How many of them would accept the Michigan job?
... and the Michigan program won't make the call? You have got to be joking.
