Carr retires, Miles/Schiano balk, UM's coaching search continues...

If Lloyd does have Parkinson`s, thats too bad. However, I have been hearing Lloyd is indeed done this year and Les Miles has his suitcases packed.

Out of curiosity, what is Miles` experience prior to LSU?

Assistant at Oklahoma State, Michigan, Colorado, and for the Dallas Cowboys.

I am reading this in a couple more places now.

re:Miles He filled in for God when God was at those out of town meetings.

I've been hearing this for a couple years, the Parkinsons rumor. I also hear that Les Miles is about HATED within the current UM athletic staff. Believe it or not, MICHIGAN thinks he's an arrogant arsehole.
He was the HC at Okie State before the LSU gig came up. Brought that program out of the toilet.

Let the speculation begin. John Gruden? Urban Meyer? Cam Cameron?
Bet lil Jimmy Harbaugh wishes he'd a just kept his yap shut a little longer. What a fag.

First of all, IF it comes down this way, I wish Lloyd the best. I hope it's mild and beatable, or at least manageable. He is to be commended for his service to UM, stepping in when Moeller went upside the PoPo's head a few years back, and won an NC.
The timing of it is totally classic Lloyd the Michigan Man. This will give UM a head start on the two other big schools out there who will be looking for a new coach: Texas A&M and Nebraska.
It is widely speculated in Big 12 Country that Texas A&M will go hard, as in bootlick hard aftet Tommy Tubberville, and Nebraska is rumored to be interested in Jim Leavitt and Paul Johnson of Navy.

If Lloyd hangs it up after OSU (I thought he might announce as early as Friday), UM will beat those two schools out, as they both have a bye week this week and one game left afterward.

If this is true, then I feel for Lloyd. I hope for the best for him.

As much as everyone gets on him, he's still helped Michigan to a decade of good football. It may be time for him to step down, but I wish it was on his own terms, not the terms of a disease. Hopefully he has a say as to who the next head coach is, as I'm sure his opinion is highly respected.

Maybe Lloyd can stay on as a recruiter.

"Hopefully he has a say as to who the next head coach is"

Motown, by all accounts, Lloyd seems to want MIKE DEBORD to replace him.
Are you ready for that?

[Wilfredo Ledezma]

I heard Les Miles has a pretty hefty buyout if, and only if, he goes to Michigan...

Would Michigan have to pay the buyout?


Also would he be able to recruit the south, and bring Pelini with him?

so thats like a 5 part question...
