Trading up?

Looks like Michigan is about to turn in it's Carr for Les Miles (I know...overplayed pun and not original, but deal with it). While MGoBlog was not entirely sure of whether this was true after Kirk Ferentz rejected an offer for the position, Kirk Herbstreit put himself on the line this morning during College GameDay. I guess that makes the news highly likely to be true.

Herbie also reported that Miles is bringing in a New defensive coordinator that is very well though of (with OSU ties). Not sure how I feel about English getting pushed out, since English is such a great recruiter. Not sure how I feel about this hire, but Miles was the most likely choice according to the national media.

I'm curious how Coach Carr speaks about this situation since it was rumored that Carr has a strong dislike for Miles (Miles left Michigan's coaching staff when Carr became head coach in 1995). He can't possibly avoid these questions over the next month when Michigan prepares for either Florida in the Capital One Bowl or Florida State in the Champs Sports Bowl (hooray Orlando...)
