Thoughts?


I don't know to think anymore.
It bothers me that Miles was as careless as he was to even have a conversation anyone at UM; he then followed that lack of judgment by stating that he was helping them find a coach (I do agree with Spielman that that was a very lame statement).
Go figure.
The thing I do know is that I'm tired of of all this drama. I say this to Miles: If you want to go UM, go because you're losing points with the LSU fans the longer this drama continues.
For all we know, Miles may have already told Ship that he's going and neither want to mess with the NC game. Who knows.
If you knew that your wife was lusting after another man, what would you do?????

There was nothing careless about having a conversation with UM. There was no bad judgment in making the statement about "helping" UM find a coach. It is the careless thinking and lack of ability of folks to deal with a simple conversation in which Miles told Michigan he was not interested the UM job or Michigan told Miles they were going in a different direction who have blown this totally out of proportion that is what is bothersome. The "helping" part of the statement is simply a polite way of not revealing who told whom no as to not embarass either party. That's all it was. Nothing more. Get over it.

Why folks are making this a big issue is really hard to grasp? Folks are way to ready to buy into grand and implausible conspiracy theories.

Spielman wanted to come to Michigan. It was his first choice. But his dad, a big OSU alum and former player said no. But Chris has admitted it on TV that UM was where he wanted to go.

He was a great college linebacker, big, fast, hit like a truck. Too bad he ended up with the Lions in the pros, they wasted him badly.

Mich is not coming for Les Miles. They have bigger fish to fry. Look out for a blockbuster hire.!
