Earlier this week, Les Miles told reporters he’s not considering the Michigan job, and the attention has since turned to Jim Harbaugh and a reported offer of six years and $48 million.
Whatever happens, Miles wants the best for the Wolverines.
Miles, a former U-M player and assistant coach, had his name in the mix in 2007 and 2010. This time around, Miles decided to extinguish that flame.
“What happened there was it became such a constant question. I couldn’t put it behind us,” Miles told SiriusXM College Sports Nation. “Our football team is preparing to play a significant game against Notre Dame. I certainly didn’t want a distraction in any way.”
When it comes to Harbaugh and the reported money, Miles believes Michigan will get a good coach, whoever it is.
“The only thing I can tell you is I’m so for Michigan,” Miles said. “They have a process. They’re going to go through it. They’ll get a great coach. I wish them the very best.”
Miles was also asked about the “Michigan Man” mantra and the various groups within the Michigan community. Former players recently penned an anonymous letter admitting Rich Rodriguez didn’t get enough support and emphasizing the need to throw full support behind everyone in the program. Miles believes the unity is strong in Ann Arbor.
“The truth of the matter is, the people at Michigan, the people that care about The Big House, the history of Bo and the great coaches that have been there, there’s no rift there,” Miles said. “That will come together very quickly, are you kidding me? Everybody wants the best for their alma mater. There’s nobody, and I mean nobody, that will pull it in another direction.”
^Its happening, and Les Miles knows it's happening

There has been a lot of chatter this weekend regarding Jim Harbaugh’s future and as I’ve believed and posted here since November, this looks like it’s happening, ya just gotta wait a week.
Mgoblog has some really good stuff concerning a 49ers coaches wife and a John Elway tip. I agree, that stuff getting out is more than likely real as it isn’t within the local/Michigan “echo chamber.” I’m also now comfortable telling you that multiple former teammates are on board that it is happening, including 2 that are still tight with Jim today. These guys weren’t talking a month ago, I’m convinced they didn’t know then but they are in the loop now.
It’s been very difficult to get anything out of anybody in the last couple weeks, NOBODY wants to be the leak now with this apparently and more than likely happening. Most of the guys who told me it was happening in November just nod knowingly when we discuss the Harbaugh issue, they are measuring their words as if they’ve all been told to clam up while Hackett does his job. They will give cryptic hints, but NOBODY wants to hit the “Go” button…yet.
The word today is that Miami Owner Stephen Ross won’t go after Harbaugh or the report that Harbaugh will leave “part ways” with the Niners are ridiculous, WE ALL ALREADY KNEW THAT! These NFL reports are nothing new, nothing. Ross is on record a month ago saying he would rather see Jim in Ann Arbor. Did we all just assume he way lying? Dumb. As for the other report that he would part ways, huh, you’d have to be living in Columbus under a rock to not know he was leaving San Francisco. I’m continually shocked at what is reported as “new” news these days, I mean, I can get all this crap from Bernie Smilovitz and he’s too busy running 30 year old bloopers to even know there is a vacancy in Ann Arbor. Do these National media guys really think Michigan was going to go without a coach for three weeks? I’m told they’ve known all along that this deal would get done. I feel bad for Jim Hackett, people must think he’s a real light-weight to think he wasn’t going about this the right way.
Look, this could still go wrong at the last minute, but I don’t think it will, there is too much evidence both publicly and off the record that indicates Jim Harbaugh is ready to shock the NFL world and return to college. I’ve said all along that Jim wanted the job and he will prove it next week after his dreadful season with the Niners is done. He isn’t going to quit and walk away, he will see it through no matter what, that is in his DNA.
You will hear a lot of stuff this week, but nothing will be done until NEXT week, so relax, know it is happening and have a great holiday!

Yeah because I want the OSU-UM rivalry to mean something again. I also want the Big Ten to be a better conference.
I thought that there was no chance that Harbaugh would actually go to Ann Arbor.....but now I am second guessing that...............

I asked because half of the Buckeye fans I've spoken to feels the same way you do, and the other half wants us to never be good again.
Texas A&M’s slow movement toward hiring a defensive coordinator appears to be tied to Jim Harbaugh.
One of the Aggies’ candidates, Florida defensive coordinator D.J. Durkin, is waiting to see whether Harbaugh takes the open Michigan head coaching job, according to a source close to the situation. If Harbaugh, currently at odds with the San Francisco 49ers, were to go back to coach his alma mater, Durkin could get reunited with his former Stanford boss.

Durkin has been serving as Florida’s head coach since Will Muschamp left, and can’t go anywhere until after the new year, as he’s committed to leading the Gators against East Carolina in the Birmingham Bowl on Jan. 3.
The Aggies have been without a defensive coordinator since Mark Snyder was fired on Nov. 28, the day after A&M’s regular season ended with a home loss to LSU on Thanksgiving.
The waiting game has hurt A&M’s recruiting. Last Friday, the state’s No. 1-ranked prospect, Mesquite Poteet linebacker Malik Jefferson, chose Texas over Texas A&M in part because the Aggies do not have a coordinator. Later that day, five-star defensive tackle Daylon Mack, of Gladewater, de-committed from A&M. He announced one day later that he now was considering LSU or TCU.
Durkin, who turns 37 next month, has worked at Florida the past four years, including the last two as Muschamp’s defensive coordinator. Muschamp, the one-time Texas defensive coordinator, was let go after four seasons in Gainesville.
Before going to Florida, Durkin coached Stanford’s defensive line and special teams for Harbaugh from 2007-09.
On Tuesday, 49ers general manager Trent Baalke confirmed during a radio interview that Michigan has reached out to him, seeking permission to interview Harbaugh, a three-year starting quarterback for Michigan in the 1980s who led the Wolverines to the 1987 Rose Bowl.
Harbaugh could leave the 49ers as soon as the season ends this Sunday, against Arizona. Michigan reportedly has made Harbaugh, who enjoyed a successful stint as Stanford’s head coach before moving on to the 49ers, its top target, and some reports have said he’s been offered a contract approaching $50 million.
The Wolverines have been without a coach since firing Brady Hoake on Dec. 2. Harbaugh has refused to discuss other jobs.
