    I love this: "The timing just wasn't there," his wife said. "He put the team first, even in front of what may have been a professional dream of his, because this is such a great team and a great program. There was no way he was going to do anything to jeopardize anything these kids have put forth.

    "From the time they started mentioning his name for the Michigan job, he said nothing would interfere with this team until the last second goes off the clock on whatever the last game is. The thing he learned from Bo Schembechler was the team, the team, the team."

    Very good article. Nice to see the media remembering that these are real people we are talking about. Miles is a classy, family oriented guy, and a credit to your program, regardless of the outcome of this game.
