Don't know if ESPN is jumping the gun here, but on the 9 AM Sportscenter and Gameday Kirk Herbstreit is reporting that Les Miles has been (or will be) hired by Michigan. The kicker: Miles is bringing former Georgia Tech defensive coordinator John Tenuta with him. As Michigan fan, I can only react to this in one way suitable for a family website:
!!!
Tenuta, of course, was the architect of the good bits of Georgia Tech these last six years, consistently dragging GT to bowl games in the face of the Reggie Ball experience. If you asked the nation at large who the best defensive coordinator in the country was, he would get a significant chunk of the votes.
As an added bonus, Tenuta coached at Ohio State in the mid to late 90s, spending five years there as a defensive backs coach and, in 2000, defensive coordinator. Hello rivalry spice.

Former defensive coordinator John Tenuta? I'm pretty sure he's still the def. coord here at GT, as well as being the interim head coach for one final game.
