- A special report on Coach Rod from the Freep. Interesting points: he turned down Arkansas and WVU fans think he threw the game against Pitt to get the Michigan job. It's a good read.
- Boubacar Cissoko (above) who yesterday said he was de-committing to Michigan has changed his mind and now stays committed to the Wolverines.
- Les always has something to say: Miles weighs in LSU coach Les Miles didn't take the Michigan job, but he called the man who did. Miles, a U-M alumnus, wanted to congratulate West Virginia's Rich Rodriguez and he wanted to give him a hard time.
Rodriguez's mother, Arleen Rodriguez, told the Free Press the phone call was a good-natured exchange this past week. According to her, Miles thanked Rodriguez for losing the game against Pittsburgh. Miles then joked with Rodriguez that the loss cost Miles his dream job. "He told my son that if West Virginia had beaten Pitt, they would've been in the championship game, and that would've left an opening for him," she said.
Rodriguez has said it would have been hard to leave if the Mountaineers were playing for the title. As it is, LSU is in that game Jan. 7 against top-ranked Ohio State.
Happy Holidays!
