David Brandon was at his home in Scottsdale for 2 days then Dallas for 2 days while the Coaching convention was going on before he met with Miles. It's silly to think he didn't meet with several coaches in both places. David is the type of person who collects all info then takes it back with him and thinks it over before he makes a decision that could end up being his legacy.
He is not your typical AD, he played football under Bo, was a UM regent for many years, and quit a job paying over 3 million a year to become the AD that makes 600 thousand a year. He has also donated 5 Million of his own money many years ago to the UM Motts Childrens Hospital.

The plane has left and Miles is not on it, it's going to Willow Run, a small airport right outside of Ann Arbor. Most I know assume that's good news for you guys, as Miles will be off to Dallas tomorrow.

Forget the M plane that Rogel owns, that is leased to Delta, but the Domino plane from Dallas now that IS the David Brandon plane. Still don't read to much into that. David Brandon has to put a divided fan base back together and heal all past wounds from a fractured base. He is the untimate nice guy and will go out of his way to make everyone happy. He wants anyone who went to Michigan to feel welcome back at Michigan and hopefully also make some donations. IMO he will meet with Miles out of respect and for the reasons mentioned above, and because the last AD Bill Martin would not even return calls from Miles in 2007. That does not mean he would hire him, or that Miles would want to be hired..
The M plane in BR is owned by Rich Rogel, he leases it out to Delta. It has 0 to do with Miles. Rich made his money in health care and sold his company to Blue Cross Blue Shield.
He has donated Million to Michigan and has collected donations over 3 Billion dollars for UM. He is mostly retired but works with a lot of charities and providing scholarships to needy students. He is an advisor to the President of Michigan, mostly on International afairs.
David Brandon is in Dallas TX for the coaches convention, after spending some time in Scottsdale where he owns a home. He is the only one who has the power to make a new coaching hire. David Brandon uses the Dominos Jet, he gets it as a perk for being on the board of directors.
IMO you all have nothing to worry about as far as him wanted Miles for the next coach. Forget what Michigan sites, paid or free say, they get no information out of the Michigan AD, in fact they look more at the LSU sites and the Miles camp for info. Of course anything is possible, but just not probable.
Best wishes to you all.
