ESPN Joe Schad tweets that he has a source that says Les Miles to interview for the Michigan job.
Just so you know, Brandon has hired a "coaching search" firm that's job is to contact potential candidates to gauge their level of interest in the job and have a high level financial discussion. Like "how much are you looking for?".
After those discussions take place, then Brandon talks to the potential candidate. If the discussion are at this stage it could mean Miles is close to being named the next Michigan coach. Of course if the discussion goes poorly the search could continue. The firm may also have a number of candidates at this stage as well.
Side note: If Michigan were to hire Miles I hope that hire would include LSU's DC John Chavis who is known as one of the best DC's in the country.

Bob, any idea how Les Miles is regarded in terms of his recruiting ability?
Hopefully by Monday we'll have a coach.
Lets hope for a great season whatever happens.
I agree Ricky, let's just have a good season...Amen
Why not just hire John Chavis then?
Ricky, it is hard to know if the head coach is a good recruiter or is it his staff. Most HC's close the deal and the staff does the true recruiting or keeps the relationships with the kids for a couple of years.
With that said, Les and staff are very strong recruiters and they always seem to have strong classes.
I would expect we would be back in the game with some of the guys we lost yesterday.
