re: Who actually believes Miles was helping UM??

That makes sense and if it is true then kudos to Miles for the twofor. He had the sense to keep his job and then made sure that Mich did not publicly suffer. I have no problem with him making suggestions on the coaching search. That is just polite class.

But I will say this: we have forgotten what a pain Saban was about this kind of thing. At the end of EVERY season he flirted with jobs. Miles has impressed me with his sincerity and integrity.
