Speaking about the head coaching position at Michgan and offering the job are not the same thing. There is reason to believe that Martin is being sent there to tell Les personally and privately why he is not going to be the choice.

They would have communicated this to him before now, so that he could publicly withdraw his name from consideration. Michigan has nothing to gain from the chaos surrounding LSU, IF they weren't intent on hiring Les, which I believe that they are and that they will.

I don't think that it will be for $3.25m/year or whatever Les could squeeze out of this from LSU (which I don't believe that he is consciously doing), but obviously the man is not making this particular move solely for the money. He will want to make a market wage, and I think Michigan will recognize that they need to pay $2.25m to $2.75m/year for the new coach, and maybe Les is in the higher end of that, but we'll see.
