Yes, the Les Mile house rumor is floating around. Just saw another one of them completly elsewhere.
Joe,
This was all set up before the season. Lloyd is an old-school coach with those types of beliefs. He didn't want there to be speculation all season about successors(even though there has been) and wanted pople to concentrate on the student-athletes and the games, not himself. He did it the right way. He goes out with a 6-7 record in "The Game", OVER .750 percentge, 5 big10 titles and a National Championship. Not too bad at all. In fact, for over half of his tenure he was the best big game coach in the country by the numbers. Has the game passed him over? Most likely. The next hire will be Michigans most important ever. They have stayed within the family forever but we'll see whre they go. This is one of the few programs that hasn't went into a major lull for several years. USC. OU, Neb, Miami, FSU etc have all had that issue. Its a testement to Michigan that they have the bowl streak and even with the last 7 years still hold a 57-41 advantage lifetime against the Bucks.
