re: Do you think Miles ever showed real interest in Michigan job?

I remember an interview Miles gave some time after the 2007 season in which he said that he wanted to speak to Michigan so badly but could not until after the season was completed including the NC game. He did not elaborate but it deducing the meaning of his comment I would think that even if he had wanted to be considered for the HC job his personal ethics would not permit him to discuss it until he finished the season in Baton Rouge. By then it was too late.
And yes I do believe Herbstreit is not above sabotaging LSU when he has a chance to help OSU. It was a Dan Rather moment for sure.
