Poor Widdle Skunk-Bears, No One Wants to Coach You

Awww, sorry fellas, how sad!  Les Miles wants to stay at LSU. 

From his press conference: 

“There was misinformation on ESPN and I think it’s imperative that I straighten it out. I’m the head coach at LSU, I will be the head coach at LSU, I have no interest in talking to anyone else. I have a championship game to play and I’m excited about the opportunity of my damn strong football team to play in it. And that’s really all I’d like to say. It’s unfortunate I had to address my team with this information this morning. With that being done, I think we’ll be ready to play. There will be no questions for me; I represent me in this issue, please ask me after. I’m busy. Thank you very much, and have a great day.”

Even though he was “Bo’s guy” and a perfect Michigan fit and blah blah blah, it looks like Miles is going to turn Michigan down to stay in LSU. (Poor little Brian is all sad and frustrated.)

Shocking?  Not at all.  MQ said it previously in his ‘nightmare scenario’ post that prompted all the little skunkbear fans to freak out and post numerous idiotic comments on this site.  But, turns out MQ (as he is wont to be) was right.    Heck yeah, I used the word ‘wont’, I rule.

So far we know the following:

Les Miles doesn’t want the job.

Michigan can’t get Miles’ DC Bo Pelini because he is going to the Cornhuskers.

Kirk Ferentz doesn’t want to be a skunkbear.

Tommy Tuberville is likely to stay at Auburn with a nice little contract extension.

The ’stache won’t be at Michigan.

And since Jim Harbaugh trashed Michigan’s academic standards (or lack thereof), that door is likely closed.  And he said it is.

So what does that leave the UM faithful with?  Not much.

Greg Schiano at Rutgers?  Maybe.  How about Ty Willingham?  He may be looking for a job soon.

PS - All is conjecture until contracts are signed, but we reserve the right to mock the skunkbears any time we choose.  Currently, no one wants that job.  Miles could still change his mind - there’s no contract as of today - but that doesn’t limit the newsworthiness of all of this back and forth at Michigan’s expense.  Awwww…

UPDATE:  UM fans are FREAKING OUT on their message boards.  There is a strong mix of people saying some mix of the following:

1)  F&*^ Les Miles, he is an idiot anyway!

2)  Oh my God, Les Miles was our only chance at a good coach, what will we do now?

3)  CBS loves the SEC and hates Michigan, they suck!

4)  Mike Debord is our only hope - mediocrity is on the way!

This is quite fun.  Karma is a bizo, ain’t it skunkbears?

 

UPDATE:

Ooops!  UM got rejected again! And again!

Kirk Ferentz turned Michigan down for the second time this week, and Greg Schiano also said he’d rather stay at Rutgers.  Rutgers!  Over the Michigan job.  

I thought ND had the lock on messy coaching searches, but Michigan has now taken the cake.  I mean, this makes the O’leary fiasco look tame.  Then again, we ended up with Ty as a result, so unless Michigan hires Willingham they’re likely to end up better than we did in that scenario.  But the search itself has redefined FUBAR.

I think they don’t have to look very far (South Bend?) to learn from others mistakes. Keep trying Domer’s, you may be able to stay within three touchdowns of Michigan next year, and win possibly four games.

What should keep trying? Domer’s what?
