Les Miles still has told friends he would come to Michigan, but Michigan is going in a different direction. Bill Martin took a nice sail boat trip and never returned any phone calls friday night.
So it seems Bill Martin is going to live with not hiring Les Miles will that be part of Bill Martin's legacy. Miles at LSU has been there three years and all three year he has finished in the top five along with two BCS bowl games and of course one of those he is going to face our arch-rival Ohio State in the National Championship game.
Does he already have something planned for when he beats Ohio State like "Well at least one Michigan Man knows how to beat that Ohio team". I am sure he might say something, but who knows maybe not, but who could blame him.
The thing is even after he signed his contract extension he still could would have came to Michigan all he needed was a sign, but Michigan wouldn't even talk with him and that will not only be part of Bill Martin's legacy, but Lloyd Carr's legacy as well.
We will see LSU at the top of college football a lot in the next ten years and we are going to say that could have been us?
Will the next Michigan coach be able to come in and do what he wants or does he have stipulations he will have to follow under the old guard? Time will tell and so we will see where this program goes from here.
