For all you LSU fans worrying about the distractions with the Michigan head coaching job opening up, let me help you sleep well tonight. Les Miles absolutely, positively will NOT be the next head football coach at the University of Michigan. We’re talking about IBM here. We’re talking about North Carolina basketball. We’re talking about a football program that’s the equivalent of a dish of vanilla ice cream topped off with a vanilla wafer while being cheered on by 111,941 fans about as boisterous as a glass of warm milk. Miles would be a double dose of rainbow sprinkles, and that's not Michigan football. Michigan basketball changed the way the college game looked and acted with the Fab Five, but again, that’s not Michigan football. Miles speaks his mind in a fun, harmless way and is never afraid to stir the pot a little bit. While that might be what Michigan needs, it’s not really what it wants. Unless Miles can prove he can be a bit more button-down, like 1992 David Letterman moving from late night to 11:30, he’ll be keeping his Baton Rouge address.I’m a Miles fan. He stepped into a nearly impossible situation at LSU and took what Nick Saban did and made it better. I don’t care if Saban left behind the New England Patriots; if you’re 32-5 with (what will be) two BCS appearances and two SEC Championship games in three years, you’re doing just fine. However, it seems like he should be doing more.As good as LSU has been this season, should it have needed a miracle late play to beat Auburn? Shouldn’t it have blasted Kentucky? Do you really trust this team in a huge road game under Miles after struggling so much with Alabama, getting a fight from Ole Miss, and losing two of the four road tests last year? With all the NFL speed and athleticism, and all the experience, shouldn’t this be an epic juggernaut of a team rather than the default BCS No. 1? It might sound harsh, but we might be talking about Dale Brown here; a superior gatherer of talent who’d probably get his coaching doors blown off by a Bobby Knight. Put it this way; if Steve Spurrier and Nick Saban were coaching this LSU team, and Miles was coaching this year’s South Carolina or Alabama teams, what do you think would happen? Would the games be as close as they were? Remember, whoever takes over at Michigan will be judged by what he does against Jim Tressel, who has turned into the Florida version of Spurrier.Raise your hand if you had heard of Tressel seven years ago? Remember, at the time, Glen Mason was a main man in the running for the Ohio State job before it went to a (gasp) D-IAA coach, and don’t be shocked if Michigan goes for a star-in-waiting who doesn’t have the big-time name recognition. No, it’s not going to be Les Miles wearing a Maize and Blue mock turtleneck, but it’ll be someone else who's really, really good losing to the Buckeyes every year while LSU is hanging out in the Sugar Bowl."
