1 guy in the media who nobody like said he would jump for Michigan. If that one idiot just didn’t say that nobody would ever think it.

He's not leaving mainly because they don't want him...
He's a 9-3 guy costing 100 million..

So skip Bertman was lying?

quote:

Les Miles turned down an offer to coach at his alma mater, Michigan, in 2011, according to former LSU athletic director Skip Bertman. "Les Miles turned that job down for more money at Michigan. He turned it down," Bertman said Wednesday during a two-hour interview on the "Sports Today" radio show on Baton Rouge's ESPN Radio affiliate, 104.5 FM. "He would never say that because he's a very humble guy. But I was there; he turned it down."

"I swear to God that's true. He turned it down," Bertman said. "LSU had just given him this new contract, and the president of Domino's Pizza flew down on a Domino's plane and offered him [the Michigan job], and he says, You ve got to tell me tonight, Les, because if you don't say yes, I'm going to get Brady Hoke.' And sure enough, he took off and the next day you read in the paper that he hired Brady Hoke."

Brian Kelly to Michigan is an example of the telephone game. One person threw out a scenario and people ran with it

Besides the obvious, he has been building LSU for two seasons. Look up his career and see what his first 3 years are like after he arrives at a school. Year 3 is a massive improvement. I don't know what a massive improvement from 10 wins looks like, but it's probably somewhere around 15 wins.

Yes

They met at Voodoo BBQ. The only people at the table were Miles, his wife, his agent and the Michigan AD. Skip was not there. Neither was Alleva

So he lied when he said "I was there". He wasnt. Not in 2011 for certain. And in 2007, everyone on the planet knows the Michigan AD never called Miles' agent back, before Les signed his extension with LSU under Skip
